Family of origin issues often present many land mines for vocation and formation personnel. All too often these issues end up sabotaging the individual and the community’s health and well-being if left unaddressed. One of the principal objectives of this workshop will be to help vocation ministers formulate specific and more appropriate questions, which when answered, may inhibit or exclude candidacy. The format will be within an adult learning methodology.  It will attempt to be highly interactive with ample time for individual and group processing, discussion of specific cases and utilizing the very latest in research and theory on this topic.

 

Schedule

This workshop begins at 9 a.m. on Wednesday, July 29 and ends at noon on Friday, July 31.

The schedule was respectful of the varied needs of participants. I liked starting with Mass and the longer lunch break. Chicago is a beautiful setting. The group size was good, with a mix of women and men from diverse communities.

—Brother John Scherer, O.F.M. Cap.

The networking and storytelling with other vocation ministers was most helpful. This is a safe space to ask questions.

—Sister Teresita Richards, S.N.D.
