Preparation: Courageous Conversations builds on the principles set out by Pope Francis in Fratelli Tutti. He states, “Together, we can seek the truth in dialogue, in relaxed conversation or in passionate debate. To do so calls for perseverance; it entails moments of silence and suffering, yet it can patiently embrace the broader experience of individuals and peoples...The process of building fraternity, be it local or universal, can only be undertaken by spirits that are free and open to authentic encounters.”

To answer Pope Francis’ call, Christus Ministries hopes to provide this space of authentic encounter. Spiritual conversation in the Ignatian tradition invites people to be attentive and discerning to God’s will so that we may come to understand how to better build the kingdom here on earth. Combining, prayer, discernment, and honest conversation, Courageous Conversations attempts to seek the truth in honest dialogue by providing safe and brave spaces of encounter.
