Alan: It has been said that the first duty of a Christian is to listen.
When friend Josie became a lay Maryknoll missionary, she spent six months at the Maryknoll Spanish language and cultural institute in Cochambamba, Bolivia. Josie was then sent to her mission site in Barquisimeto, Venezuela, with the instruction that she spend the next six months "not doing anything," but instead "listening to the people."
"Don't just do something, stand there."
