open up and become sensitive to God's own mission could also mean that we begin
to recognize the strangers as messengers, sent to us with a particular message,
and that, therefore, before we dare preach to them we ought to listen to their
stories.

That is our vocation:
to convert . . . the enemy into a guest and to create the free and fearless
space where brotherhood and sisterhood can be formed and fully experienced.
