Just a few
thoughts
·
There are so many interesting reflections and
observations available at this time….
So my suggestions are not necessarily about the Gospel of The Day
·
Lent is a great time to give God a chance to
convince us of his desire for our friendship.
·
Have you browsed the Lenten Booklet from our
Adelaide diocese? Its title is “Rebuild My
Church” and it seeks to prepare us for the Plenary Council Assembly.
·
Authentic renewal of the Church isn't an issue
for the hierarchy alone. Church renewal depends on every Catholic, including us--our
personal growth in holiness, our readiness to use the gifts God has given us, our
willingness to learn how to discern and support authentic renewal.
Reflection.

A series of 7 reflections for Lent are available
The Signs Of The Times
Ø Plenary
Council progress without transparency or inclusion for lay Catholics
An important overview of the state
of preparation for the Plenary Council by Professor John Warhurst - a
Plenary Council delegate from the Archdiocese of Canberra Goulburn.
Ø Abortion:
people want clear-cut answers but it’s not that simple
John A. Dick is an American
Catholic academic who has taught historical theology for many years at the
University of Leuven, Belgium. He states:-
“When writing about abortion, I
like to promote dialogue with civility: to build respectful conversation
bridges, not blow them up. Respectful conversation must also be honest
conversation.”
