## Consecrated life |

like monks or nuns |

|
|
||||||
|
Religous Orders: a group ow way of life or charism |
||||||
|
| | | | |
||||||
|
|---|---|---| |
||||||
|
|in the world | brothers | sisters| |
||||||
|
|monasteries| monks | nuns| |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Brothers run the schools |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
La Salle -> Christian Brothers |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Every order has a specific charism or focus |
||||||
|
- charism is a particular skill set, passion, gift, and/or essential intent given by God. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Example: |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Producer:**: Makes the acutal thing happen. Usually marked by hands-on work. Often given tasks to complete by others. Often has a tangible connection between work done and the result. |
||||||
|
* programmer, construction worker, cook |
||||||
|
* easier work-life balance |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Manager:** Works to maintain and control systems through consistency and accountability with a goal of efficiency and stability. |
||||||
|
* Has manager in the title often lol |
||||||
|
* communication and process |
||||||
|
* keep the good thing going. Conservative view on maintaining. |
||||||
|
* details and day to day |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Leader:** OProvides vision, inspiration, and mission to a group. Can welcome chaos and take the long view. Given to abstract and creative thinking. |
||||||
|
* longer term view |
||||||
|
* ok with longer later stuff |
||||||
|
* not as detail oriented |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Side-Note: Leader & manager: HIBT from NPR |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
going to college is similar to monastic system. Similar to the monk life. |
||||||
|
everyone is going for the same thing. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
natural trade-off is the long term relationship b/w monastic and long term |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Three Vows and Charism to the consecrated life |
||||||
|
1. Poverty (sacrifice private ownership to serve the community) |
||||||
|
2. Chastity (sacrifice romantic relationship for the fellowship of brothers/sisters) |
||||||
|
3. Obedience (sacrifice personal preference for the sake of the community) |
||||||
|
* no career-building, serve the community for the community |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Purposes: |
||||||
|
1. Those in the consecrated life work to follow the way of Jesus literally. |
||||||
|
2. Support the community |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Particular communities have particular charisms: |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Hospitality, Prayer/Work, Service to the Poor, Preaching, Education, Healthcare |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Focus on order: The Benedictines |
||||||
|
* first official religious order: early 600s at the fall of the roman empire |
||||||
|
* Charism of Stability: |
||||||
|
* stay on the land that you are on |
||||||
|
* monostaries are self-sufficient |
||||||
|
* you stay on that land |
||||||
|
* Not a big value on people at our time |
||||||
|
* "boredom is a goal not a problem" |
||||||
|
* good goal for the world because of climate change |
||||||
|
* Charism: Prayer and Work: |
||||||
|
* fields: grow and prepare food |
||||||
|
* artwork |
||||||
|

||||||
|

||||||
|
* Hospitality |
||||||

||||||
|

||||||
|
* Brian Loritts |
