How does one become a Companion?
If after reading and reflection on the Values and Vision Statement of Companions, the vow, and related items, an individual feels called to this form of commitment in mercy, he/she would initiate a dialogue with the Companion responsible for initial contacts. In the course of this discernment, a brief autobiography stating how one experiences this call to mercy will be required. Additional components of the discernment process include an opportunity to meet with other Companions, an in-depth questionnaire, and on-going supportive assistance.
