Listening deeply is essential for communities to make informed discernment and decision. This listening can be done in forums, but may be limited by how many people speak. For more personal connection, 1:1 conversations provide more inclusion of members and allow for those uncomfortable speaking at a forum to have their input heard. To learn more and prepare for this MACG training, please read this article by the Franciscan Action Network. Preceded by a light lunch.
