A steady rhythm for the congregation
Rome) The house is settling into a rhythm now that the delegates to the general congregation are immersed in the second phase that focuses on the business they have to attend to, deciding what documents to write or what actions to mandate. A general congregation is a legislative body, but it still functions in the spirit of prayer that made the election process of a new general so special. My friend Fr. Don Doll went back to the States last week after helping photograph the big liturgies at the start of the congregation. He is a whirlwind of energy and his presence made the first weeks of the congregation a special time for me, but his photographs also enabled many people to get a sense of what was going on here in Rome. We could not talk much about the election, but his photos were worth thousands of words. Everyone became so used to him walking around with his camera that they accept me as well, so we are continuing to document the congregation.
