Pope Francis has requested a worldwide “Synod” or gathering of ideas, dreams and a vision for our church. Led by the Holy Spirit, we have been asked to re-imagine church. *Please note that the synod will in no way change church teachings, traditions or rituals, but will allow the pastoral and creative side of parish ministry be examined. We will soon provide more information on how you can participate, from now until March 22, 2022. In the coming weeks, established parish ministry groups, neighborhood groups and all individuals in our sister parishes will be invited to participate in various ways. 

Everyone's first two assignments: 

1. Please pray for this unique, inclusive and holy process, led by Pope Francis. 
2. Pope Francis has invited us to reflect on the following questions:

• A synodal Church, in announcing the Gospel, “journeys together:” How is this “journeying together” happening today in our parish?
• What steps is the Spirit inviting us to take to grow as a family of God, walking together in faith?  

Current protocols:

• Everyone is required to wear a mask while indoors at Church, regardless of vaccination status;
• Everyone is required to wear a mask for indoor gatherings, meetings, athletic events, practices and rehearsals.
