Croí Nua Spirituality Centre - Synodality A reason for Great Hope

I was at a talk about 

Synodality - A Reason for Great Hope

(4 hours long)

it was in

Croí Nua Spirituality Centre

Galway City

Some pics:

This was a really cool building. I was never there before.

The talk was by:

Julieann Moran. She is the General Secretary of the Synodal Pathway of the Catholic Church in Ireland

She was accidentally included in this pic. I was actually trying to capture the text on the screen

It related Synodality to the Gospel of Mark 2:1-12 

We had to think about what everyone was thinking and feeling in the story

and

what we would do in that situation

Then it was basically talking about synodality and everyone said it was taking F-O-R-E-V-E-R 

Also, we had to sit in circles and do a 

'Conversation of Spirit'

I wasn't really sure what that was. It sounded a bit scary. I think they need to change the name.

Everyone sat in small circles

I had a smart group

Everyone took turns to speak for 2 minutes

Pause

No responses or interruptions.

Then any extra speaking 1 minute

Pause

No responses or interruptions

Then 3 minutes open chat

Apparently, that's how the Synod was run... (different time limits ...  lol )
