[Sundaycommunity] Retreat -The Synod on Synodality

Sun Oct 27 17:34:58 PDT 2024

Hello my friends,
Thanks for the great sharing today!
I enjoyed listening to all of you! I learned much and I am inspired to
continue to "listen."
We need to keep the Synodal practice alive! Let us think how we might do
that.
Below is a link to news of the death of Tzotzil priest Fr. Marcelo Pérez,
assassinated
last Sunday while celebrating Mass in the city of San Cristóbal de las
Casas, Chiapas, Mexico.
I had the privilege of walking with the Tzotzil communities from 1981-83 as
a Scarboro lay missioner.
Thanks for mentioning him and Fr. Gustavo Gutierrez today, Sylvia.
May we learn from their witness!
Have a great week, everyone.
Blessings and abrazos,
Ron
