How we understand formation in the Saint John Society?
“Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men.”
We understand formation as a holistic process involving four formative areas.
We understand formation as occurring in distinct yet integrated stages.
We understand formation as the free appropriation of values.
We understand formation as a communal and personal process of mutual enrichment.
We understand formation as a journey through time and personal development.
We understand formation as a time for accompaniment.
We understand formation as a free and responsible process, and the formative environment should reflect this: opportunities for discernment.
