Love, Joy & Sex: Reflections on Pope Francis' "Amoris Laetitia" in a Divided Church

5:30pm: Reception
6:00-8:00pm: Roundtable Discussion

"Love, joy, and sex" don't often end up in the same sentence as the word "pope," but they all play a part in Amoris Laetitia, the apostolic exhortation Pope Francis released last year.

One year later, Catholics around the world remain fiercely divided about what it means in daily life. This roundtable explores some of its many different interpretations—and hopes and challenges—for both lay and clergy Catholics, especially those in the global South—Asia, Africa, and Latin America.
