Sunday reflections from Easter – Pentecost : 4th Sunday Reflection
To deepen our understanding of Gospel nonviolence, we invited seven members of Pax Christi to explore the powerful readings for the Sundays after Easter – readings that tell us something of the struggle of the early Christian communities to create a life-path for themselves built on the life and witness of Jesus.
Their reflections are short and personal and each of them has something to offer on the vocation we all have to be people of nonviolence.
This Sunday our reflection comes from David McLoughlin. David is a member of Pax Christi’s Nonviolence Working Group and Emeritus Fellow of Christian Theology at Newman University, Birmingham.

Pax Christi, along with other organisations, has been involved in organizing a series of fascinating inter- generational conversations. The conversations have taken place around the country and brought together people from different generations to discuss their faith and its role in their engagement in justice and peace. As well as feedback being given to the Bishops of England and Wales at the current Synod on youth in Rome, Pat Jones has written an insightful article, ‘Bursting the Bubble’, for The Tablet on the conversations and what we can learn from them. You can visit the website at www.peoplefaithjustice.org.uk for more information on the conversations, including some interesting videos and resources to hold your own inter-generational conversation.

Concluding our series of Eastertide reflections from Pax Christi members. This week for Pentecost we hear from Fr. Rob Esdaile
…The Spirit is an awkward gift, testing the foundations, attracting attention and opposition, admired and yet despised, cutting off the option of quiet indifferent living in the face of human pain.
Fr Rob is the Parish Priest at Our Lady of Lourdes, Thames Ditton and is a member of the Pax Christi Nonviolence Working Group.
