Quotes

• This Synod also calls on members to talk heart-to-heart to each other and to encourage all we shepherds to listen to small ethnic and cultural groups and minority movements in the Church. The way of the Pacific is the way of journeys also. Hospitality must be our special care. I think especially from Tokelau of the welcome given to Pacific islanders arriving in Australia and New Zealand. Hurt human nature does not communicate well.
