03.03 Study

 

In our rhythm of life, study is meant to be formative rather than informative. Practiced together, study and contemplation shape the desires of our heart and reveal where we may be invited to put our gifts to service in the world.

 
 

Rule of Life

.01

 

Each member, with the help of the Director of Learning, will select or develop a course of study particular to the member’s season of life and reason for entering the Order.

 

.02

 

Each member sets aside regular time every week for their personal course of study.

 

.03

 

There is no exhaustive list of acceptable courses of study. Each course of study is selected with discernment and creativity. However, examples may include:

  • An informal course of study related to a specific commitment or area of ministry to which one feels drawn

  • Enrollment in a vocational training program

  • Enrollment in a degree or non-degree program through an accredited institution
