Mauricio López Oropeza, Vice President of the Ecclesial Conference of the Amazon (CEAMA) and facilitator during the XVI General Ordinary Assembly of the Synod of Bishops propose us a reflection from an Ignatian Perspective of the Lights and Shadows of the Synod.
Focusing on several aspects of the undergoing synodal process such as the method of the conversation in the Spirit, the subject and conditions for discernment, Lopez remind us that “The Synod on Synodality is a kairos, a unique opportunity for the Church to advance toward greater fidelity to Jesus’ project. This process, still under construction, calls us to embrace tensions and challenges as part of the Spirit’s dynamism. Synodality is not merely a method but a way of being Church that requires constant personal and communal conversion.
