The theme for this synod is “For a Synodal Church: Communion, Participation and Mission.” The word “synod” literally means “walking” or “journeying together.” Pope Francis has called on each of us, as the People of God guided by the Holy Spirit, to help shape the future of the Church in the Third Millennium. The purpose of this synod is not simply to create more letters or encyclicals, rather it is an opportunity to dream about what our Church can become, what we are called to be as a Church of the poor, to bind up wounds, and learn from one another. Please consider joining fellow parishioners for Synod information and listening sessions. Each one of our voices maters; let your voice be heard. And remember, as Pope Francis has said, “The Synod is intended to inspire people to dream about the church we are called to be. Thank you for your participation and support in this vital Church initiative.
If there are questions, please let me know.

SYNOD PRAYER:
We stand before you, Holy Spirit, as we gather together in Your name. With You alone to guide us, make Yourself at home in our hearts; Teach us the way we must go and how we are to pursue it. We are weak and sinful; do not let us promote disorder. Do not let ignorance lead us down the wrong path nor partiality influence our actions. Let us find in You our unity so that we may journey together to eternal life and not stray from the way of truth and what is right. All this we ask of you, who are at work in every place and me, In the communion of the Father and the Son, forever and ever.
Amen.
