RELIGIOUS HOUSE EXTERNAL OPERATIONS

INTRODUCTION
	This manual has been created as a comprehensive tool for the many roles the Religious House must play in its external life. Practical constructs have been laid out in a universal context to ensure that the Religious Houses worldwide are one common dynamic. The manual is designed to enable the Religious Houses to be the glue that holds the Order accountable to its mission. It delineates the mission into its several areas and enables House members to attain the­common wisdom and common memory needed to intensify their spirit journey, thereby creating corporate discipline in a global missional force. Finally, this manual symbolizes the decision of the spirit movement of the twentieth century to be engaged in the civilizing process on behalf of all men.
SPIRIT MATURATION OF COLLEAGUES
	The practical spirit maturation of movemental colleagues is enabled through the continual impact of spirit tools such as singing, liturgy and celebrations. Corporate Discipline: The assignment in and through the structures with regular missional accountability enables the internalization of a corporate disciplined style. Vision Building: Vision is created and sustained through context expansion when encountered with the global demands in missional engagement. Methodological Training: The House is a constant methodological resource through its presence as priest, pedagogue, guru, and prior.
STRUCTURAL CATALYSIS OF REGION
	Care Modules: The entire region is assigned to care modules' a movemental dynamic created by teams composed of the House. the secular­religious, and the local movement. Penetration Enablement: Regional penetration is enabled by assigned teams and individuals operating out of a pedagogical stance. Formulation Enablement: Formulation enablement is provided by task forces and training programs. Permeation Enablement: The task of permeation is enabled through vocational recontextualization and liaison with secular structures.
GALACTIC FORMATION OF LOCAL CHURCH PROJECT
	Corporate Cleric Consultations: The initiation and expansion of the Local Church Project is the primary responsibility of the Religious House and is begun with any given local church through the corporate cleric consult. Auxiliary Formation: The auxiliary which is called forth from the cadre to engage in the project is nurtured and sustained by the Religious House auxiliary prior dynamic. Galactic Nurture Weekly sodality and bi­weekly Week II Council meetings of the galaxy are the primary responsibility of the Religious House auxiliary prior who provides the spirit and methods necessary for training and engagement. Ecclesiastical Relations: He is furthermore responsible for those relations with the church hierarchy necessary to maintain an adequate context for the project to progress.

GLOBAL PRESENCE OF MOVEMENT

Comprehensive Context: The religious house demonstrates its global presence to the region by providing a comprehensive context that holds and directs global strategies and continental priorities. Resource Development: It also cultivates and develops resources within the region for the global mission and addresses the region with comprehensive symbology. Research Interchange Center: A research interchange center insures a flow of information through the house and releases the wisdom of the regions for the practical creation of the New Social Vehicle and New Religious Mode systems and designs. MANUAL EXPLANATIONS: Where possible in the manual concrete helps have been listed and are indicated with small letters as follows (a) Rational Constructs (b) Imaginal Formats (c) Procedural Instructs (d) Instrumental Means

I. SPIRIT MATURATION 1. SPIRIT IMPACTS
	The spirit maturation of movemental colleagues is enabled through the continual use of spirit tools such as singing, liturgy, and celebrations.
INTENTIONAL CELEBRATIONS	1. Celebrating in an intentional manner creates a spirit happening and provides an example of corporateness. (b) 1) Construct dramaturgy chart (c) 1) Theme selection 2) Role assignment 3) Preliminary contexting 4) Supply procurement 5) Closing ritual
MOVEMENT SINGING	2. Movement singing, when adequately contexted, is a powerful spirit framework for external house activities. (c) 1) Context non­professionalism 2) Introduce new songs to region 3) Select songs intentionally 4) Context each song to the present 5) Orchestrate song
PRIESTING STYLE	3. Priesting style is exhibited by house members in their contacts with those outside the religious house dynamic, by offering to others the possibility of spending their lives intentionally. (a) 1) Priesting style chart:
		Establish Contacts Maintain Detachment Present Possibility	Demonstrate Rapport Objectify Situation Enable Decision	Embody Collegiality Push Radical Lucidity Demand Life Decision

OTHER­WORLD MYTHOLOGY	4. The Other­World Mythology is the compilation of stories, based on the spirit treks, which the religious house uses in lectures and short courses in order to impact regional people with the experience of their spirit deeps. (c) (1) At first, teach only the four main Other­World categories: Land, River, Mountain, and Sea. (2) Short­course the Other World Chart strategically. (3) When discussing Other­World Mythology, always state clearly that the Other World is in this world. (d) (1) Use Summer '72 Trek Lecture papers.
2. VISION BUILDING
JOURNEY CHARTS	Vision is created and sustained through context expansion: encounter with the global demands in missional engagement. 5. To enable the spirit growth of regional colleagues, journey charts are helpful in informing the Religious House as to the roles in which persons need to be engaged. (b) (1) A sample journey chart is on page 5
MISSIONAL ROLE ASSIGNMENT	6. Missional role assignment charts are another aid useful in allowing regional colleagues to make commitments to the movemental mission.

See the sample Track Chart on page 5. (3) Regional grids are helpful in imaging where assignments are to be made. These have been used in workshops to enable colleagues to get a mental grasp of their own region and metro.
GLOBAL IMAGES	7. The Religious House external life as expressed through use of decor and individual dress constantly exposes regional colleagues to global images. (b) (1) Create schematic diagram to hold all decor needed within the house and name the rooms in the house.
