Rather famously, Pope Paul VI once said “Modern man listens more willingly to witnesses than to teachers, and if he does listen to teachers, it is because they are witnesses” (Evangelii Nuntiandi, §41). This session pursues an understanding of what it means to be a witness – a witness of the action of God in our lives – and how a witness gives testimony. Participants will learn practical tips on how to give a testimony and will begin working on crafting their story of encounter.
