FORMATION - We have begun a series of conversations at uisg inviting Superiors general, members of general councils and support staff to meet and share on a variety of topics.
Each conversation will be facilitated by someone who has experience in the area who will give a short introduction before the table conversations begin. The introduction will be translated into Italian. Table conversations will take place in language groups.
Monday October 9th 9.30-12.00
New approaches to initial formation for sisters
Facilitator: Sr. Rosemary Howarth ssnd – novice director of SSND congregational novitiate in Rome
“I wonder if establishing congregational novitiates that require skills for intercultural living and novitiate courses given through intercongregational courses may be a new wineskin for the new wine of our new members!
Could it be that a renewed focus on novitiate formation may influence the program of on-going formation? Empowering all our members and communities to witness to the unity in diversity that our world needs to live in peace?”
