Our National Assembly took place at Park Place in Hampshire from 18-20 September. The weekend was titled 'How many loaves have you? Go and See: The miracle is in the Sharing', and centred around St Mark's account of the feeding of the 5,000. It was an exploration of our 'giftedness' as individuals, as community, and to the world.

On the Sunday we held our AGM - the official business meeting of CLC as a registered charity. As well as approving the last year's accounts, we elected two new national officers, Una Buckley as President and Eamonn Hamilton as Treasurer. Thanks were expressed to our outgoing president Evelyne Maloret who has been elected Convenor of the CLC Euroteam and David Formosa who has volunteered his time to provide administrative support to the community in the CLC office.

We have been making a journey of reflection about fostering "Leadership" in CLC. This has been triggered by the initiative of the World Executive, as part of their process of implementing the recommendations of the Nairobi World Assembly.

More information is available in the attached note.

Over 40 years ago in 1967, Pope Paul VI issued his encyclical 'On the Development of Peoples' ('Populorum Progressio'), one of the most important social documents issued since Vatican II. Its teaching about the growing poverty and injustice of the developing world is still loud and clear today as it was then.

A number of organisations and groups, including the Christian Life Community, have signed up to the livesimply project to re-visit this encyclical and to celebrate, reflect and take action to work for justice.

CAFOD have produced an action pack of materials for communities, parishes and other groups to use.

We have produced our own live simply reflections booklet so that CLC members can more easily have access to the material and participate in the project, if they wish to do so. The material may be used for individual prayer or for sharing at CLC group meetings.

This briefing paper gives some of the background to the Live Simply project.
