Description

Why “a world in gestation”?

“We know that the whole creation has been groaning as in the pain of childbirth. Not only, but we ourselves, who have the first fruits of the Spirit, groan inwardly as we wait eagerly for our adoption to sonship, the redemption of our bodies.”
Romans 8:22-23

“… because of the exuberance of life and the longing to live; to express a passionate vision of the Earth, and to seek an answer to the questions of my activity, because I love the Universe, its energies, its secrets, its hopes and because at the same time I am consecrated to God, the only Origin, the only End.”
Teilhard de Chardin

Program

MODULE 1 : Fundamental concepts of leadership
Let us begin this journey together, exploring some personal experiences of leadership and reaping the wisdom they offer. Let us become familiar with some fundamental concepts of leadership: role, system, purpose, authority, power…

MODULE 2: There is no one way, but we make our way when we walk
What does it mean to exercise the leadership of consecrated life at this turbulent moment history, in the world, in the Church and in our congregations?

MODULE 3: Weaving Communion
As leaders, we are called to grow more and more in the capacity for dialogue, non-violent communication, managing difference in relationships, generative listening…

MODULE 4: For I know well the Spring that flows and runs, although it is night
How is this leadership service that I live, day by day; what is sacred space and transparency of encounter with God?

MODULE 5: The poor teach us to read the gospel
In consecrated life, can we be leaders and prophets at the same time?

The five Modules that make up this Program are full of questions. Our job will not be to respond to them, but rather to develop an approach, to acquire a mindset, to integrate concepts that help us to explore them and to use them as a resource.
