Pope Francis invited every Catholic to advise him on how to discern the Church's path forward. This process, called a “synod, ” means “journeying together.”
Catholics from across this diocese – and across the world – have shared what the Holy Spirit has laid on their hearts. This journey of listening will conclude in October 2023 in Rome. There, Pope Francis will listen to bishops who have been listening to their people worldwide about the best ways for the People of God to help him discern the Church's path forward.
Bishop Zubik explains the purpose of the Synod and how you can help. Everyone who cares about the Church is called to participate.
He encourages us to listen to the Holy Spirit to hear what God is calling us to share.
