A spirituality of systemic change

October 26, 2013

MemoParticipants of the Vincentian Family Gathering were treated to a powerful illustration of what couldĀ happenĀ if Vincentians followed the lead of Ozanam in asking the big questions of the day (see previous post).

Fr. Campuzano (aka Memo) addressesed a gap in the literature on Systemic Change – The Spirituality of Systemic Change. The full text and presentation will be available in a few days. Although the following can never capture the dynamism of his presentation the following phrase can hint at the flavor.

From the founding experience…to a Vincentian movement … to a Vincentian spirituality…. too a Vincentian school.

A member of the family… An outsider speaking

Vincentian institutional crisis in the USA. a of Vincentian fundamentalism

When does suffering lead to life?
Where is life calling us to go?
Do we have the energy to go Ā where life is calling us with urgency?

Many Ā ways of asking are we translating Vincentian charism for today.

…..

He will continue with a second part to his presentationĀ with Ā “Moving Vincentian Spirituality to ACTION”
