The process of discernment is at its peak. This morning Fr. Anthony Mc Sweeny, who is conducting the discernment, led the members into the personal phase of the discernment process. Yesterday in the evening the members of the GC25 reunited in the chapel invoking the Holy Spirit and today they continue to prepare themselves personally.

In the morning the paper containing only one name of the one to be in charge as Rector Major was handed over. At 11.00, Fr. Mc Sweeny communicated the list of the names proposed. There were ten names in all. Among them, 8 were members of the out-going general council. On the basis of this list, the members will continue with their personal reflection in view of the election which begins at 15.30 this afternoon.
