Formation Definition
Formation is an ongoing process that invites those who serve at CommonSpirit Health into experiences to discover connections between personal meaning and organizational purpose. These connections inspire and enable us to articulate, integrate, and implement the foundational elements of Catholic health ministry so that it flourishes now and into the future.
Formation Purpose
Formation strengthens the sense of personal purpose and calling in our work in order to sustain the faith-based and ministerial identity of CommonSpirit. Through this, we encourage operational excellence as we live out our mission, vision and values.
Formation Vision
All who serve at CommonSpirit will have formation experiences that will both foster personal growth and help sustain who we are, why we are, and how we are as a faith-based ministry.
