How do we listen to the wisdom figures among us...."

- Deepening sessions:
- As #LCWR2018 reconvenes after the morning deepening session, listeners share their thoughts. "I witness that as our ranks get more diverse themselves, diversity becomes a reconciling force. The shifts are navigating us toward communion." - @susanfrancois
- "It seems to me that we are at a fiat moment, much like the original fiat moment with Mary. If we can say 'fiat' and ask the spirit of God to do what needs to be done to us, we can bring life to the world." - Virginia Herbers #LCWR2018
- "What happened to me as a result of the sharing was indeed an experience of deeper communion. North American congregations are claiming a focus on interculturality, and for international congregations, that is a huge and critical moment." #LCWR2018
- Liz Sweeney says that as she listens to those sharing reflections, she's reminded of Carrie Newcomer's song "The Beautiful Not-Yet." This is where we stand now, Sweeney says. #LCWR2018
