Now & Then…Again | Presence and Participation

In this episode of Now and Then Again, host Wendy VanderWal Martin speaks with Jenna Calabrese, a member of the Henri Nouwen Society’s 30 Under 30 cohort and newly licensed occupational therapist. Jenna shares how her encounter with Henri Nouwen’s writings and her experience at L’Arche shaped her vocation, spiritual life, and understanding of presence and participation in a wounded world. Together, they reflect on mentorship, generational faith, and how young leaders are embodying Nouwen’s prophetic witness today. 2026 Conference Website - https://www.conference.henrinouwen.org/ Sponsor 30 > 30 https://www.henrinouwen.org/give ___________ Book Discussed: Adam: God’s Beloved https://amzn.to/3fsJxiS (US) https://amzn.to/2MP02tq (CAD) ___________ SUPPORT THIS PODCAST: henrinouwen.org/donate/ * SIGN UP FOR FREE DAILY E-MEDITATIONS: henrinouwen.org/meditation/ * MORE FREE RESOURCES: henrinouwen.org/ * FOLLOW US ON SOCIAL MEDIA: INSTAGRAM: www.instagram.com/henrinouwensociety/ FACEBOOK: www.facebook.com/nouwensociety/
