Five Ways – Jul 23

July 12, 2023 Five Ways E-Letter

Many thanks to those who commented on the June 21 Five Ways E-Letter. 

Please note that Bishop Robert Barron below is one of those elected by the USA bishops to take part in the Synod on Synodality, which begins on Sept. 30 with an ecumenical service.  Twelve “fraternal delegates” from non-Catholic Christian Churches will also participate. A complete list, including the many women who will be able to participate for the first time in a synod, is available on the internet.

You may want to read the four synod items on the home page of the Mission-Unity-Dialogue website:  http://www.harrywinter.org.

The June 2023 issue of Oblate World, pp. 4-7, (available on www.omiusa.org) noted that our Oblate shrines in the USA are taking part in the National Eucharistic Revival, which began on the Solemnity of the Body and Blood of Christ, June 2022 and will run until Pentecost 2025.

And may we all slow down during the hot summer months and enjoy God’s many gifts to us, especially the presence of Jesus among us in the Most Blessed Sacrament, where He energizes us for evangelism, ecumenism and dialogue.

In Christ’s love,

Fr. Harry Winter, O.M.I.
