Ladies of Charity AIC Philippines Renewal of Commitment is read as follows:
Lord, we are gathered here together,
Responsible for our association,
Concerned for the destitutes,
A responsibility for the poor,
For an association in the spirit of service,
For the work it can accomplish,
And which it should accomplish,
Responsible for the image we give to the Church
In carrying out the basics to which you called us.

Through the intercession of St. Vincent De Paul, St. Louise de Marillac

And to our dear Mama Mary…
We always hope that you will have a hand in our decision

To do our responsibilities and guide us in the path of humility, simplicity

and love.
Set our hearts on fire with zeal.
Joining you in your tireless works,
In the joys of heaven forever.
