Madge Karecki, SSJ-TOSF Contemplation and Mission: Exploring the Relationship

Madge Karecki, SSJ-TOSF How it works…

The Spiraling Process--1 Madge Karecki, SSJ-TOSF Encounter with Christ WORD LITURGY RELATIONSHIPS Openness to the grace of contemplation takes shape within human experience and is nourished through attentiveness to the Word and participation in the Liturgy.

Madge Karecki, SSJ-TOSF Spiraling Process--2 Drawn to Christ We need to pay attention to invitations to pray, “stirrings” of grace that open us to intimacy with and teach us to cry out to him “Draw me Lord, and we will run after you.” Encounter with Christ

Madge Karecki, SSJ-TOSF Spiraling Process--3 Drawn to Christ Called to Conversion By the action of the Holy Spirit God transforms human limitation into something beautiful taking what is of least value and ennobling it from within.

Spiraling Process--4 Madge Karecki, SSJ-TOSF Called to Conversion Illumined for Love Slowly, we find that we are able to make choices that better reflect God’s love for the world.
