Thirteenth Sunday In Ordinary Time
29th / 30th June, 2019
Plenary Council 2020
This week’s front page is devoted to the Catholic Church in Australia’s Plenary Council, which will ultimately gather next year. However, much has happened already in preparation for the Council. There have been submissions from individuals and groups from across the country. These submissions were gathered from people both within and without the Catholic Church. Over 10 months, at least 222,000 people chose to be part of that period of listening and dialogue with one another. Their voices were represented in the 17,457 submissions that were received by the National Centre for Pastoral Research. From those submissions, quantitative and qualitative analysis pinpointed around 120 subject areas. Our parish did not make a submission, but I know that members of the parish did provide submissions. I suggest that it might be time for us to be more involved in this process as a parish, particularly looking to the Archdiocesan gathering later this year in October.
On Pentecost Sunday the Plenary Council 2020 moved into its next phase of preparation with the announcement of the National Themes for Discernment, which were a response to the Plenary Council’s central question: “What do you think God is asking of us in Australia at this time?” Over several days of listening to what the people of God said, with intense moments of prayer and discernment, the Bishops Commission for the Plenary Council and its Executive Committee, joined by the Facilitation Team, considered what people were longing for. Six National Themes for Discernment emerged. These are:
• Missionary and Evangelising • Inclusive, Participatory and Synodal
• Prayerful and Eucharistic • Humble, Healing and Merciful
• A Joyful, Hope-Filled and Servant Community • Open to conversion, Renewal and Reform.
In some ways, those subject areas described what one might call ‘the messy reality’ of Catholic life in Australia today. The voices of the faithful help us to understand something of the historical experience and the current reality of the Catholic Church in Australia. Archbishop Costelloe said there was a clear desire expressed for the Church to renew herself and focus on the person of Jesus Christ. Now we are challenged to look forward, to face some “big questions”, to listen to one another even more deeply as we discern: How is God calling us to be a Christ-centred Church in Australia that is missionary and evangelising; inclusive, participatory and synodal; prayerful and Eucharistic; humble, healing and merciful? How are we called to be a joyful, hope-filled, servant community, one that is open to conversion, renewal and reform?
Over the coming weeks we will look to the content and aspects of the national themes as we prepare for the Council.
Blessings,
Fr David
