She Who Points the Way: Jessica González Uhlig and Sr. Laura Leming, FMI, shared insights on spiritual friendship and walking alongside others’ faith journeys. This presentation utilized our latest Community Meeting Kit, Deepening Our Relationship with Mary, Pondering Other Images, and will soon be offered as a virtual program (more details in upcoming newsletters).
Marianist Resilience: Bro. Tim Phillips, SM, and Tony Garascia drew on the wisdom of our founders and trauma-informed care to explore how Marianist formation builds resilience amid anxiety and conflict.
What Makes a Community Marianist: Bro. Tom Giardino, SM, unpacked core principles for building transformational communities rooted in Marian traditions, some of which can be found in our Things Marianist handout, “What are Chaminade’s Principles for Community Building?”
We are grateful to those who participated in these sessions and to everyone who recorded interviews with Mike Bennett, NACMS media administrator, at the Assembly.
