Last Saturday, 5 October, the Sant’Anselmo community gathered for the inaugural session of Conversazioni Anselmiane, a new series aimed at bringing insights from the Assembly of the Synod of Bishops directly to campus. The first guest was Mons. Manel Nin OSB, the Apostolic Exarch for Byzantine Rite Catholics in Greece, who graciously accepted the invitation to share his experiences. After supper, the Sala Studenti Interni filled with the residents of Collegio Sant’Anselmo to hear Mons. Nin recount what he has witnessed at the Synod, offering a unique look into the challenges and hopes of the broader Church. The evening ended with questions and conversations among the residents.
