Dear Saint Charles Borromeo family,
Thank you to our Synod committee members, Darlene Murphy and Mark Bales, for providing us with a brief synopsis of the Synod survey results during the end-of-Mass announcements this past weekend. Darlene and Mark invite you to read the list of your responses, which was submitted to the diocese as a list of recommendations, along with the final report published by the Diocese of Oakland.
Meanwhile, be sure to read last weekend's bulletin, as it includes Hannah Newell's article #5 of the summer series titled "Getting to Know the Leadership at St. Charles Borromeo." We offer Hannah best wishes on her new endeavor as the Pastoral Associate at CCOP!
Blessings, everyone!
-- Fr. Kwame

One Mind, One Heart: Unified Consciousness:
The World Community for Christian Meditation (WCCM’s) theme of 2022 is Unified Consciousness. This is not merely an intellectual or abstract issue, because the survival of humanity may well depend upon the evolution of our consciousness. The mind of Christ within each of us is the same mind that contains all of us. The meditator experiences this in real-time by being able to see herself in others and others in herself. In this silent retreat, Laurence Freeman will explore the personal healing involved in unifying ourselves, with us, and with others.
This retreat will also serve as an introduction and a deepening of the practice of meditation.
