Synod Update - Part Four

We Spoke, They Listened!

In October of 2021, Pope Francis told parishes around the world that he wanted to hear from them about what it’s like being a Catholic today. Many asked “Will this make a difference?” Believe it or not, THEY LISTENED! Some of the issues raised in U.S. parishes were also raised by Catholics around the world! These common issues will be discussed at an international Synod to be held Oct. 4-29, 2023 in Rome. In the next four weeks, we will be providing links to documents intended to increase our participation in this ongoing dialogue
