Preparations for it begin now and will culminate in the bishops of the world gathering in Synod at Rome in 2023. The theme of this synod is “For a Synodal Church: Communion, Participation and Mission.” By convening this synod, Pope Francis invites the entire Church to reflect on a theme that is decisive for its life and mission. It is precisely this path of synodality which God expects of the Church of the third millennium. Following in the wake of the renewal of the Church proposed by the Second Vatican Council, this common journey together is both a gift and a task.” The objective of the current Synod is to listen, as the entire people of God, to what the Holy Spirit is saying to the Church...the whole synod process aims at fostering a lived experience of discernment, participation and co-responsibility. Synods are a time to dream and “spend time with the future.” We are encouraged to express an innovative outlook; to be inclusive; to keep an open mind; to listen to each and every one; to capture an understanding of journeying together; and to value and involve the role and vocation of each member of the Body of Christ.
