'He who has ears to hear:' Religious invited to meetings on Synodality

For a Synodal Church: Communion, Participation, Mission

At October’s AGM for congregational leaders, Sr Margaret Donovan HC led prayer on the concept of listening, as CoR prepares to take part in the synodal journey. In February we will hold our third and final meeting. The previous two sessions have attracted more than two hundred attendees:

Details: 9 February 2022 on the theme of Mission - with a reflection by Sr Lynda Dearlove IOLM, from 4.30 to 6.30pm 
To register and obtain the link for each of the meetings please email: admin@corew.org 

These meetings will by supplemented by a questionnaire to gather views and to aide the provision of information to CICLSAL in Rome (Congregation for Institutes of Consecrated Life and Societies of Apostolic Life).

In addition, we will be providing the opportunity for Religious to pray together for the success of the Synod over the two year period. We propose to hold liturgies twice a year which we hope will be attended both in person and live streamed to enable maximum participation. We are still looking for people to help us with the preparation of these,  so please let the General Secretary know if you are able to help.

We are very grateful to the steering group for helping us with this work. Those involved so far include Sr Margaret Donovan HC, Fr Paul Smyth CMF, Lynda Dearlove IOLM, Ann O’Sullivan RLR, Sr Jane Bertelsen FMDM, Sr  Christine McGarry OP, Sr Bridgetta Rooney CSJP and Fr John McGowan  OCD.
