This is a very interesting article about how
@Pontifex#PopeLeo experimented with and implemented #synodality in his diocese of Chiclayo in Peru!

Cardinal Oswald Gracias, papal envoy of Pope Leo XIV, opened the 12th Plenary Assembly of the Federation of Asian Bishops' Conferences (FABC) on July 21 by describing synodality as "one of the Church's greatest gifts to the world" and urging the Churches of Asia to become builders of peace through dialogue, reconciliation, and fraternity.

Summer time in Rome is not synonymous with vacation for the General Secretariat of the Synod. While @GrechMario is in Jakarta for #FABC Assembly, @SrNatB is conducting formation sessions & synodal meetings across the islands of Mauritius.
Yes, indeed, synodality is on the move!
The Undersecretary of the Synod of Bishops has urged members of Pastoral Animation Teams (EAPs) in Mauritius to embrace synodality as a lived experience rather than a theoretical concept, saying the Church learns to journey together through prayer, listening, and shared mission.
Addressing about 200 participants at St. Joseph College on July 11, during the first day of her visit to the Catholic Diocese of Port Louis, Sr. Nathalie Becquart said synodality is something that can only be learned by putting it into practice.
“Just as a child learns to walk by taking the first steps, synodality is learned by living it,” Sr. Becquart said.
The French member of the Xavière Missionary Sisters (XMCJ) described her first visit to Mauritius as an opportunity for mutual learning, expressing gratitude for the warm welcome she received.
“I have the feeling that I am going to learn a great deal by listening to you,” she said, drawing on the Gospel account of the Visitation as an image of an encounter in which everyone both gives and receives.

Those who have lost their lives in the Mediterranean Sea are victims both of decisions that were made and of decisions that were not made. Indifference to the common good and corruption in their countries of origin; a global economic system that generates poverty and exclusion; fear that fuels prejudice and contempt; the belief that such problems do not concern us; the criminal calculations of those who profit from the suffering of others; the slow and difficult transition from mere emergency management to the development of comprehensive and shared policies. #PastoralVisit #Lampedusa
Pray @Pontifex for this month’s intention: for respect for human life. Pope Leo XIV calls us to welcome, protect and respect rediscover every human being “from the first instant of existence to the final breath of their journey on earth”.
