Abstract
Abstract: This article argues that, for apostolic religious, ministry on the peripheries is not primarily about what service religious have to offer but about becoming identified with the people on the peripheries to the extent that those on the peripheries can claim the religious as their own. Relying on Scripture, Lumen Gentium , and Vita Consecrata , the author argues that religious are called to radical conformity to Christ’s incarnational ministry. Case studies from the tea gardens of Bangladesh express the longings of those on the peripheries and support the argument.
