As part of our on-going Synodal journey, the Office for Evangelisation and Catechesis recently hosted Dr Caroline Farey, who gave two talks. The first, entitled ‘Entering the Decision-Making Process of the Church’ looked at the two earliest accounts of voting in the Church, after Jesus had ascended into heaven. From this the talk continued to explain the voting process and the requirements for the sensus fidei of the laity. The second talk was entitled, ‘Interpreting the Word of God for our time’. This talk explained the criteria for the interpretation of Scripture ‘in accordance with the Spirit who inspired it’ (CCC 111) and how important this was for lay people for our time.
