We are grateful for the wonderful meeting we had together as CLM members, we had an amazing and fruitful weekend together.
We interacted, bonded and shared responsibilities together creating one community
Our formation sessions were based on the topic of communication.
Communication is a vital component of our living as missionaries for in this we are able to reach those we are called to serve
We learn from our Lord Jesus how He communicated the message of the Kingdom of God.
With his messages he spoke to the hearts of people bringing them close to God, He spoke the truth without fear even of death, John 5:18-47
Christ knew and understood his audience he used different strategies to pass on his messages to people and separately to his disciples
He used parables, stories silence etc. to pass on information.
Many instances he gave people chance to express their perspective, Mark 10:51
As we read the letters, articles and magazine written by saint Daniel Comboni we understand his passion for the mission.
This encourages us to use the tool of communication appropriately in our missionary lives to spread the gospel to far ends and to coming generations
With effective communication we bridge the human connection creating healthy relationships and building our communities and also the local communities that we serve.
