Description

In 2022, the General Council in Rome published “The Leavening Project: Growing Together in the Lasallian Dream.” This inspiring pastoral reflection was an opportunity for the Council to share their collective thoughts about how Lasallians worldwide can bring the commitments of the 46^th General Chapter to life in small yet vibrant ways.

This webinar invites participants to further explore and more deeply understand the purpose, background and lived reality of “The Leavening Project,” as well as its call for all Lasallians to move to the peripheries. Participants will learn about inspiring ways “The Leavening Project” is being lived out in RELAN as well as discuss how each of us can be leaven in our own ministries and institutions.
