Introduction
For a Synodal Church:
Communion | Participation | MissionThe entire Catholic Church is called to participate in the upcoming Synod of Bishops! The Synod is entitled: "For a Synodal Church: Communion, Participation, and Mission." Synod is a Greek word (synodos) meaning a meeting or assembly. The two Greek words that make up Synod are syn meaning together and hodos meaning way of journey. Pope Francis has called the entire People of God to journey together! This Synod is a process of journeying together. As the Church, we will listen to each other, dialogue with each other, pray together, discern together and make decisions together for the purpose of proclaiming the Gospel of Jesus Christ to the world!
In preparation for the international Synod of Bishops in 2023, Pope Francis wants your input on the topic of “For a Synodal Church, Communion, Participation, and Mission.” People of all ages, Catholics – and those who are not in regular practice of the faith – are invited to provide their feedback on the Church’s mission.Please click on the link, "Diocese of Austin: For a Synodal Church Survey."
