Today was a ‘down to earth’ kind of day, when we delegates from 17 countries internationally worked together in themed groups, to bring to a synthesis the submissions, reflections and dreams which have occupied us throughout our three weeks of Congregational Gathering.

We paused in this work at noon to celebrate Eucharist with our trusty companion on this entire journey, Fr Jose, whose profile can be read on this website under ‘presenters’.

By 5.00 pm all was in readiness for a plenary … and it was truly marvellous to see how the spread of material with which we have engaged had been distilled down into a manageable number of (draft) points which we will continue to hold in contemplation and dialogue until Sunday.
