Synod Spritual Adviser Urges Members to Be at Peace with Results

 The spiritual adviser to the Snod on Synodalirty said that even if some members of the Synod end up feeling disappointed by its results, "God's providence is at work in this assembly," the Cath. News website reports today (Oct. 22, 2024).


"The triumph of good cannot be frustrated," and "we may be at peace whatever the result" of the Synod's month--long second session, Cardinal-- designate Timothy Radcliffe said on Oct. 20 in the Vatican's Paul VI Audience Hall before members began reading , discussing, amending, and voting on the final document to be presented to Pope Francis on Oct. 26. 


The document will need to be read as something seeking rto bring deep renewal of the Church, not "through dramatic decisions, but by evoking  new ways of being a Church in which we relate to each other much more profoundly in Christ and to Christ much more profoundly with each other," he said at the afternoon briefing.
