FORMATION



The success of a mission in the African context requires cultural and social incarnation. Contextualized formation is a gift and a privilege. The goal of formation in the context of an Apostolic Missionary Society is the gradual transformation of the formee as well as the society in to an increasingly God centered existence. This is an area of priority in our Mission. The formators give their best to mould them to be committed missionaries.
