What is the Synod on Synodality?
Pope Francis will invite bishops from across the world to Rome in October 2023 for the Synod on Synodality, to discern ways to engage more people in the decision-making processes that affect the whole Church. The theme is: “For a Synodal Church: Communion, Participation, and Mission.” Leading up to this gathering, local dioceses will consult with local Catholics and others to create a report to submit to their national bishops’ conference, which will then contribute to a report to be presented to Pope Francis. |
