Vocation ministers need to have an understanding of psychological well-being and psychosexual development so that they may adequately assess a candidate’s ability to lead a passionate, healthy and integrated life. In this workshop we will explore: well-being, an integrated understanding of sexuality, the centrality of relationships and intimacy, the necessity of personal boundaries, the impact of one’s past, especially physical, emotional and sexual abuse on one’s ability to relate, emotional awareness and integration, living a healthy sexual and celibate life as well as the impact of social media on personal development.

This workshop is intended for vocation and formation teams, seminary personnel and religious leadership, and others entrusted with the assessment of inquirers and candidates.

Lynn was excellent. Her presentation was very pertinent to our lives today as vocation ministers and people striving for balance in our lives. I look forward to her next workshop!—Father Chris Santangelo, S.S.C.C
