Archbishop Shane Mackinlay will explore the importance, challenge, and implications of the concept and practice of synodality in light of Francis's prophetic call to be and become a synodal Church at every level of its organisational structure. He will consider the implications of synodality as a practice and a method for the Catholic priesthood and consider how theological accounts of priesthood can incorporate synodality's pastoral and integral demands. Maeve Louise Heaney VDMF will explore Catholic culture through the lens of the world outside Catholicism, grounded on the ecclesiological tenet that the Spirit is poured out beyond the explicit lines of Church belonging and that there is wisdom to be found in reading the signs of the times also in what they have to say about what Catholicism, and the ministerial priesthood, is and could or should be.
