John Allen's Report:
Issues were not resolved in "open dialogue", "No wiggle room on matters of substance"
Cordial atmosphere but neither side budged.
Cardinal Levada believes that LCWR has deviated on same sex marriage, women's ordination as priests and cannot represent church as an official pontifical entity.
Bridget Mary's Reflection:
Time for LCWR/Nuns to declare freedom and live Vatican II vision that the people of God are the church, not the hierarchy alone. It is time for the nuns to shake the dust from their feet and continue to follow Jesus example of justice and equality. Catholics and non-Catholics stand in solidarity with the nuns who serve the poor and marginalized today, and that is the bottom line faith and teaching of the church, not the man-made rules of the hierarchy. I pray that we soon will have nun priests ordained in public! What a blessing they would be to our church!
