Storytelling and Benedictine Hospitality
里克•史密斯 St. 玛丽修道院
Hospitality is an ancient Benedictine value, dating back to the sixth century and St. 本尼迪克特本人. The urgency of this value has only increased in our time and that urgency is growing, especially as we wrestle with the messy realities of welcoming immigrants into our lives. So many of the stories we hear are fear driven, especially with regard to immigrants. 由于害怕被可怕的现实所吞噬,我们倾向于把这些问题当作抽象的问题. Storytelling offers us a way into the ordinariness of hospitality in our own lives, events which scarcely register in our consciousness they are so commonplace. 这个工作坊将帮助我们与我们都经历过的故事联系起来,并鼓励我们讲述它们, to ourselves and to those who are closest to us, thereby nurturing confidence in our own gifts of radical hospitality.
