The entire Catholic Church is called to participate in the upcoming Synod of Bishops! This Synod is titled: “For a Synodal Church: Communion, Participation, and Mission.”
Pope Francis is asking each local diocese to gather – clergy, religious and laity together- to listen to each other. The “goal” of this journeying together is not to create a new vision or pastoral plan with objectives. Rather, the goal of our journeying together is to be present with one another, to listen and learn with each other, and to grow closer to the Lord and His Church.
