Participants in the Community of Passionist Partners gather once a month for twelve months. Each quarter flows from a centerpiece presentation (usually a day long meeting) with two, shorter, follow-up sessions. The year of formation culminates in a Day of Covenanting.
Then, a new year begins with new members welcomed into formation, growing in spirituality alongside the covenanted members who continue the journey, living out their covenants as the year unfolds.
At the end of the second year, those new members who feel ready, enter into covenant with the community, and those who previously covenanted renew and/or revise their commitments as well.
Then new members are welcomed into formation, with various members facilitating the community’s prayer, hospitality, and information sessions…
And so it grows…
