Pope Francis has called a Synod on Synodality, a two-year process where the People of God (that means you!) are being invited to reflect on what it means to journey forward together as a Church.
You're being asked to participate because you are a valuable member of our Church! In this intentional process of mutual listening, Pope Francis wants us to rediscover the joy of being the People of God who journeys together, listening to everyone.
