On this weeks podcast we share with listeners a reflection from Fr Timothy Radcliffe OP which was shared with members of the Synod Retreat ahead of the Synod of Bishops which was held in Rome in October 2023.
In a world where there is a "pandemic in loneliness" as well as a huge growing alienation and polarisation, we thought it was an interesting reflection to share where Fr Radcliffe reflects on the need for conversation and dialogue in the world taking the story of the Road to Emmaus as his starting point. Obviously he was reflecting in the context of the synodal process but for the rest of us as we head into the summer and people will be trying to rest and take holidays it provides some food for thought as well.
You can find the text of the reflection HERE as well as a video from the retreat HERE.
We have our regular weekly run through the upcoming saints of the week and in part three we have our reflection on the weekly gospel which this week is from Mark 4:26-4.
