Reflective Posters on ‘Global’ Theme: A Summary Resource
We have been working on a way to summarise our first segment ‘Global’ for the Mercy Global Presence process, allowing participants time for reflection on the richness and depth of that work, and leading us gently into our next segment ‘Mercy’ which begins on 25th March 2020. Here, now, is our plan:
Reflective Posters
We have created, in English and Spanish, four landscape sized posters, one for each of the monthly themes (September – December 2019). The context for each poster is the content of the month’s theme. The poster content comprises the names of presenters, key words/phrases and images drawn from each monthly theme. Accompanying the posters is a suggested approach for using the posters for personal reflection.
The first poster on the ‘Cosmos/Cosmology’ theme is available on 5th February, 2020. The three remaining posters will be released consecutively on 12th, 19th and 26th February. On 26th February the complete set of posters will be made available as a flipbook.
Why Reflective Posters?
The idea (thinking ahead to June 2021 when the process formally concludes) is to create the series of 16 posters (one for each monthly theme) and this approach is one that could work for all four Segments.
The posters in themselves are artworks. They can be downloaded and printed then pinned up on noticeboards, for example, in community rooms and classrooms, or framed for display in corridors, hallways, boardrooms, entrance foyers etc. They can be included in mail outs, whether these are by post or email. They can work as teaching aids, displays, MGP process advertorials and reminders.
The posters and guide are available to view and download below, with each theme poster available separately and as the complete ‘set’ – the four posters will also become a flip book of the four themes together.
Theme 1 Cosmos/Cosmology Posters and Guides
Theme 2 Earth and Integral Ecology Posters and Guides
Theme 3 People and Deep Social Change Posters and Guides
Theme 4 Incarnate God in Cosmos and in Person of Jesus Posters and Guides
We hope that this ‘summary’ approach will ‘bridge’ the time between Segments, will encourage reflection and will enable newcomers an entry point into the process.
