BRUSSELS. Four Capuchins take part in the missionary formation program in Brussels. The French session started at the beginning of March in the international OFM-Community at Brussels. Br. Aubert Bertrand OFMCap took the role of Animator, together with Br. Damien OFM and the other friars who form the fraternity of “Our Lady of the Nations”. The program aims to foster reflection about Franciscan mission in today’s world. The participants study Mission History and Theology, Franciscan Theology and Spirituality of Mission, Intercultural Community Building, Inter-religious Dialogue in Africa and Asia, Cultural Shock, the role of the Word of God in Mission, Fraternal Economy, Franciscan Leadership, Formation and animation of Small Christian Communities, Self-Knowledge and Mission, etc.
