School of Community is a central part of ND CLU. These meetings are usually discussions that start with some observations from the writings of our founder about the encounter with Christ; from there we share our insights and experiences, questions and answers, our struggles and our support. We begin and end with prayer and throughout the whole meeting grow as a community as we grow in faith.
"Fr. Giussani's movement invites its members and anyone else who wishes to participate in... discussion and catechism [involving] basic topics: not questions to give participants a chance to match their wits or indulge in subtle explanations, pure exegesis of Gospel or Pauline texts, but matters having to do with life, to make it easier to communicate who one is and to share the needs of others.
"School of Community aims at being a true school which, through the reading and discussion of texts indicated by the Movement's Center, shapes in its participants a clearer understanding of the nature of the Christian fact and illuminates their life. The assigned texts usually come from the teachings of the Church or Fr Giussani's writings.
"School of Community is the customary moment for catechism and meeting together, for high school and university youth and for adults.
Just as Fr Giussani has indicated for every gesture of the community, School of Community too is 'public,' something of value offered to everyone, in the sense that it is open to participation to all and is often publicly proposed in places of study or work."
