NEW YORK – A synthesis report on synod listening sessions conducted during the current interim period in the Diocese of Owensboro, Kentucky, shared that priests and laity expressed frustration about a lack of clarity from Pope Francis, specifically in regards to Fiducia Supplicans. “[The frustration] was generally related to Fiducia Supplicans and the confusion and consternation it caused among the faithful regarding what was perceived to be an approval for the blessing of same sex unions,” Bishop William Medley of Owensboro wrote in the synthesis report.
