Socius and Acting Provincial
John Dunne SJ is out of hospital, but starting fortnightly chemotherapy as AMDG Express goes out. In spite of this he is returning to his office as Socius (with the part-time assistance of Liam O’Connell SJ), and acting Provincial until 23 October, while the Provincial, John Dardis SJ, is at a conference of European Provincials. Fr General Nicholas slipped away from the Synod of Bishops to spend Saturday and Sunday with the Provincials in Madrid, then returned to Rome in time for the Monday session of the Synod.
