Each of the four Episcopal Conferences making up the Federation of Catholic Bishops' Conferences of Oceania provided a video focusing on the synodal journey undertaken in their territories. An additional video expressed another very important voice in the existence of Oceania – the ocean itself. Imbalances are being introduced, causing devastating consequences, not only for nature, but for the people whose lives are rooted in nature and its cycles.
In order to begin to put all these voices together, participants were introduced to the art of spiritual conversation that enables true dialogue: speaking and listening in order to seek understanding and discernment. Participants were then introduced to Oceania’s draft Response to the Synod Susan Pascoe, created in January by the 20-member Discernment and Writing Group.
Barney Dunn, a direct descendant of James Dunn, an Irishman who settled in Suva, says he sees the consequences of climate change around him. Barney showed us how the rising sea waters are diminishing the size of his property. He estimates that five kilometres of his land, the land on which he walked into town as a child, are now under water, including the cemetery where his ancestors are buried.
