The bishops of the United States gathered in Florida for the Spring General Assembly in mid-June. During the afternoon general session on June 13, 2018, the U.S. delegates to the pre-synodal gathering convened by Pope Francis on March 19-25, 2018, Brother Javier Hansen, Nick López, and Katie Prejean McGrady, addressed the body of bishops on their experience. Now, you can hear their report as well, followed by a conversation with several bishops/archbishops/cardinals. (In the video below, they begin at the 12:30 mark, the discussion with the bishops begins at 36 minutes; section ends at 1:09). Archbishops Tobin and Chaput then report on the Synod preparations, then Bishop Caggiano on World Youth Day Panama 2019 and a conversation with other bishops. I love that Cardinal Dinardo (at 1:36) comments that the bishops need to make sure that young people know that they are being prayed for! (As well as offer free doughnuts!) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ What did you hear that challenged you? What did you hear that affirmed you? If you are between the ages of 16 and 29, what might you have added?
