To listen deeply is to connect! -- Miriam-Rose

The 1st session of the Plenary
Council was a very formal procedural affair. I thought the introductory
aboriginal presentation was great.
T
Official Agenda was presented, but no discussion
about it was live-streamed.

Plenary
Matters: Fr Frank Brennan interviewed by Geraldine Doogue about Sunday’s
Opening Mass. – Very interesting audio-about 25minutes
·
Comment on the Monday session from Francis
Sullivan – “For me, they are genuine voices that cry out to be heard. They are
the groans of a people wanting to cultivate a place of nurture and spiritual
and moral direction. A place that is inclusive and respectful of differences. A
place that actually makes real our belief that God is love, and we are here to
explore how love works.”
·
Comment on the Agenda from John Warhurst – “My
intention was to take the opportunity to draw a line in the sand by recording
for posterity that there was a serious disconnect between the voices of the
faithful, voiced with enormous passion and effort, and the final ‘distilled’
version. In doing so I was expressing a widely held view among council members.”
