The Synod on Synodality is an assembling of the entire Church over the next two years, at the invitation of our Holy Father, to encounter Christ, journey together and listen to the Holy Spirit. In the local diocesan pre-synodal phase which goes through May 2022, the faithful of the Archdiocese of Denver will be engaged in a process of formation and listening in each parish and in diocesan-wide gatherings in order to regain clarity on the mission God has given to his Church and listen collectively for where and how he is inviting us to extend that mission today in our new apostolic age.<\/h3>\n[\/vc_column_text][divider line_type=”No Line” custom_height=”40px”][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”full_width_background”
