On that day a workshop was organized on various themes, consisting of three parts: the methodological approach of the various missions in Kenya and Zambia, an assessment of the effort of \u201cinculturation\u201d of pastoral methods, popular religiosity, cultures and places of origin, and one\u2019s \u201cinsertion\u201d among the least.<br \/>\nSome questions were posed, starting from the highs and lows of the recent past. According to the young friars from Kenya and Zambia, what should the Franciscan style of the mission be today? What are the concrete choices one should make? In what areas would it be good to be engaged? Along what lines could the Order&#8217;s missionary policy proceed?<br \/>\nThe second part of the workshop was dedicated to discussing and testifying about the life and martyrdom of our confreres Micha\u0142 and Zbigniew. During the third part, horizons were opened with regard to the Order\u2019s missions, through lessons and discussions covering the key elements of Franciscan spirituality, in order to awaken passion and enthusiasm for missionary work.<br \/>\nIn the evening, Friar Jaros\u0142aw WYSOCZA\u0143SKI presided over Mass with the local fraternity, parishioners, SFO brothers and pilgrims. In commemorating the martyrdom of Friars Micha\u0142 and Zbigniew, three words were emphasized: mission, fraternity and the poor.<br \/>\nOne detail was especially meaningful: everything took place in a very special location &#8211; the sanctuary of Rivotorto &#8211; where the Franciscan adventure first began.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\">Friar Jaros\u0142aw WYSOCZA\u0143SKI, SGAM General Secretary<\/p>\nngg_shortcode_0_placeholder\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>From May 27 to June 9, 2018, young friars of the African Federation of Conventual Franciscans (AFCOF) took part in the second stage of their formation experience in Assisi and other Franciscan places.
