Orientation Program

Purpose

During this two-week period mis­sion­aries are invited to deepen their knowl­edge of the charism of com­pas­sion. By entering into com­mu­nity and prayer life, going on visits to the neigh­bor­hood and being intro­duced to the texts of the founder, Fr Thierry de Roucy, vol­un­teers realize that they have been included into the Heart’s Home family. This time includes sem­i­nars on the foun­da­tional ele­ments of Heart’s Home by way of reading spir­i­tual authors and the­olo­gians who have con­tributed to this mis­sion of com­pas­sion. In addi­tion, vol­un­teers will meet other Americans also preparing for mis­sion, thus estab­lishing edi­fying rela­tion­ships that will sus­tain them while on mis­sion.
