The Two Wings

The role of a seminary formator is to accompany the seminarian in the external forum and to discern with him, the seminary community, and larger Church community, whether he has a vocation to the Catholic priesthood. To accomplish this task effectively, the formator needs a vast array of skills that will enable him or her to listen to, understand, encourage, challenge, and adequately assess the seminarian in an open and honest way. The book The Art of Accompaniment by Sister Marysia Weber, RSM, offers many invaluable insights and practical tools that seminary formators can employ in their work and may be found here: https://enroutebooksandmedia.com/artofaccompaniment/ along with a couple of important templates. https://enroutebooksandmedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/08/Markers-of-Human-Maturation-Weber.pdf (template on webpage)https://enroutebooksandmedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/08/Narrative-Assessment-Weber.pdf (template on webpage)This material by Sr. Marysia is also available in Spiritual Husbands, Sp
