An experience of the German Synodal Way
Frankfurt, Germany, March 6-9 2023
Susan Sullivan BA Dip Ed MRE (Chicago) was one of two Australian representatives who attended the recent meeting of the German Synodal Way. The other was Sandhurst’s Bishop Shane Mackinlay. Susan’s report is quite enlightening, given so many conflicting reports of the Germans’ meetings. Susan has a background in executive mission leadership roles. She has designed and implemented a range of collaborative mission-focused initiatives including leadership formation programs for Australian health, aged care and social services organisations. She is currently a board member of Marymead CatholicCare in the Canberra and Goulburn Archdiocese, a director of Campfire in the Heart, located in Alice Springs, and an active member of Canberra’s refugee support and advocacy network.
