Justice Action: IGNITE: Claiming the Fire for our Future
For the weekend, we will look at the historical and spiritual significance of Mother St. John Fontbonne’s “yes†to Joseph. This experience will be a unique visual encounter that will give participants the opportunity to reflect on the values and gifts that Mother St. John embodied while also seeing those values and gifts connected to the here and now. We will hear from multiple justice seekers and advocates as they reflect on the words presented to the audience… Humility, Fidelity, Courage, Vision, Strength, Compassion. After thoughtful reflection on these offerings we will give the participants space to reflect and act via creative exercises and invitations to connect to the advocates featured in the presentation.
We will be left with a most important question as we go forth… What is our new vision and how do we reimagine the future with this vision?
