Pope Francis has invited the faithful to share with him their experience of the Catholic Church as a preparation for the Synod (gathering) of Bishops in 2023 in Rome. Prior to this meeting, parishes from around the world have been asked to gather together the People of God to conduct “Listening Sessions”. At these sessions, people listen to the Holy Spirit and to each other as they pray and discuss their experience of the Church. The Diocese of London will gather input from these “Listening Sessions” and write a summary report. You are invited to participate in one of these sessions and share your experiences of the Church, both ups and downs, as well as your hopes and dreams for the future.
Listening Sessions were held in April 2022.
