Presentation: Art of Accompaniment Humanity as Medium for Evangelization

In Evangelii Gaudium, Pope Francis invites the Church to learn and practice the “art of accompaniment” (169). This presentation will explore how the art of accompaniment allows us to use the gifts of our humanity as a medium for fruitful and compassionate evangelization. In addition, we will consider how accompaniment calls us to be good stewards of the gift of our own humanity through ongoing formation and self-care.
