Cardinal Grech: Synod is the fruit of dialogue among Bishops’ conferences

Cardinal Grech discusses the process of inclusion between all Bishops Conferences prior to the next Synod of Bishops.

Pope Francis has often said since the beginning of his papacy that the Church is a people on a journey and that its shepherds head the flock.

The Church means people that follow the Holy Spirit. This conviction is at the basis of an itinerary that will lead, in a new way with respect to the past, to prepare and then live the Synoda of Bishops in October 2023, following a path that, as is known, will have to allow in its various stages to reach and involve the faithful of every order and degree.

Cardinal Mario Grech, Secretary-General of the Synod of Bishops, stresses that the work of the Secretariat is moving along this path and that the series of virtual mode, which began on 14 June and rescheduled to last until 18 June, is also intended to make concrete that listening and discussion which is at the basis of the synodal process.
