Description

In this episode of “Inside the Vatican,” host Colleen Dulle and veteran Vatican correspondent Gerard O’Connell discuss developments from the second week of the Synod, including the inclusion of L.G.B.T. people, the global migration crisis, the plights of the world’s most impoverished people, and women’s roles—including ordination to the diaconate and positions of influence and authority in the church.
They also discuss the “delicate diplomatic line” that Colleen says the Vatican must tread in relation to the ongoing Israel-Gaza conflict and Pope Francis’ appeals for peace.
