EQUALITY AT SYNOD
13 January 2023
We Are Church calls for Equal Numbers of Voices for Laity and Clergy at Synod meetings
The Synodal Process called by Pope Francis has shown how important it is to listen and dialogue with all.
At the Continental meetings next month teams of Laity and Clerics will represent each country. They are building on the meetings held in parishes, dioceses and countries. This process must not now be stopped by reverting back to a Synod of Bishops with no equal lay representation! We Are Church calls for EQUALITY at the Synod meetings with equal numbers of voices for laity and clergy.
EQUALITY for Women
EQUALITY for Laity
