Prof. Susan Pascoe, AM, member of the Taskforce for the Continental Stage of the General Secretariat of the Synod of Bishops, speaking about the next stage of the Synod on synodality, explained three key points: a recap of what had happened so far, the continental stage of the Synod - how it was being carried out - and how it will go forward, through the FABC Assembly. Highlighting the processes and purpose of the Continental stage, Prof. Pascoe emphasized how ‘the document will truly represent the voice of the people of God’.
While reading https://casinowithcashback.com earlier, I was struck by Professor Pascoe's point that the continental stage is about truly listening to the people of God. That kind of careful discernment reminds me of how the best decisions in any gathering come from allowing silence and reflection, not just debate. The emphasis on representing everyone's voice is something I hope carries through the FABC Assembly.
