William Burkitt, Anglican vicar, dedicates to service to Christ with all that he has. He will make God’s word in his actions for succour and relief, according to his ability.

"From ancient times to today, mystics have been on the forefront of movements to care for their fellow human beings, often leading social reform movements or other works of service and care. In her book Mysticism, Evelyn Underhill describes mystics as often embodying practical roles in society, as artists, teachers, social reformers, and even political leaders, providing examples…”
