Initiatory Encounters. During 5 <\/strong>D<\/strong>iscovery <\/strong>M<\/strong>eetings with <\/strong>T<\/strong>eams of varying compositions: <\/strong>A<\/strong>nimators from the two \u201cVillages of the Sources\u201d of St-Urbain and Derval, School Pastoral Assistants, Educators, Teachers and Brothers, Bro. Yvon Roy, who came from Quebec, stayed in Brittany from June 3<\/strong>rd<\/strong> to 10<\/strong>th<\/strong>. He tells how this <\/strong>A<\/strong>nimation <\/strong>T<\/strong>ool can be a useful way to help everyone develop their <\/strong>I<\/strong>nner <\/strong>R<\/strong>esources.<\/strong><\/p>\n

“Through our Mission, we are concerned with the Integral Development of young people by listening to them and being present with them,” explains Bro. Yvon Roy, who has extensive experience as a Teacher and Pastoral Animator and Community activities at the College Jean de la Mennais in La Prairie, Quebec. In class, during lessons or during Catechism activities, I was able to see how much accompanying by writing can be a good idea, for example by means of a Logbook.<\/p>\n

Bro Yvon Roy marvels at the <\/em>D<\/em>iscoveries of <\/em>Y<\/em>oung people but also of <\/em>A<\/em>dults and <\/em>F<\/em>amilies with the help of the <\/em>C<\/em>reative <\/em>J<\/em>ournal.<\/em><\/p><\/div>\n

In the early 1990s in Quebec, we were struggling with a wave of teenage suicides. We needed means to respond to these Emergencies and we sought Resources and developed tools.<\/p>\n

First of all, there are the \u201cSentinel Support ones\u201d: that is to say the young people themselves who listen and identify other young people in their Class who need support. It is a matter of detecting and acting and these young \u201cPeer Helpers\u201d are in contact with Adults who accompany them in a Crisis unit. These devices have continued with benefit for years and actively participate in prevention.<\/p>\n

A tool to access our <\/em>I<\/em>nner <\/em>R<\/em>esources.<\/em><\/p><\/div>\n

Another resource, the Creative Journal. It is a way for each young person to get to know each other, to create links between young people and to develop self-esteem. Invited by the Animation Teams of the two Villages des Sources of St-Urbain \u2013 Cr\u00e9ach Balb\u00e9 \u2013 and Derval thanks to the links initiated by Armelle and Micka\u00ebl Le Port, Bo Yvon allowed groups to try out the approach. \u201cIt’s a link with our Internal Resources,\u201d he continues. We can be “picked up” by emotions and this tool helps us to develop our Interiority. The Diary allows a dive to understand our emotions and identify what I need\u201d.<\/p>\n

Experienced <\/em>W<\/em>orkshops here with the <\/em>T<\/em>eams of the Villages des sources of St-Urbain and Derval.<\/em><\/p><\/div>\n

By means of Collages, Drawings, Symbols, Writings… it is a question of freeing the word. With 12 years of practice and Interventions in Mexico, Quebec, New Brunswick and now in France, Bro Yvon marvels at the Discoveries of young people but also Adults and Families who experience these Workshops, their connection to themselves. The approach also fits in the same way for the In-depth Discovery of Biblical Texts, to feel what they awaken.<\/p>\n
