CHURCH SYNOD

How to Participate in the Synod

 Pray for the synod process. Pray that the entire Church may be open to the Holy Spirit. Pray that we may rightly discern the movements of the Holy Spirit.

 Reflect on your experience of Church – at the levels of parish, diocese, nation, and world. What fills your heart? What breaks your heart? Engage in conversation with your family, your fellow parishioners, with anyone who is interested in the topic. Reach out to friends and family who are no longer coming to church.

 Let your voice be heard! While our parish level listening sessions have concluded, we still have a couple of slots open in our parish delegation to the Deanery Listening Session on Saturday, April 2, 10am to 1pm, at Our Savior Church in Manhattan. You must pre-register with Maryann at mtyrer@stelmo79.org to participate.

 Submit your feedback as an individual on the Archdiocesan website. Find the discussion questions and form for submitting your responses at https://archny.org/synod/contact-us/
