Christ is risen! We are risen!

We were baptized in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. Jesus has taught us about the Father and the Holy Spirit.

Preparing for the Synod - What might the Holy Spirit be indicating in this? The meeting was a hopeful and positive experience even with the significant volume of challenges shared. Nevertheless, the hope that the whole church is open to hearing the voice of its global parishioners builds a sense of renewal and opportunity. We need to trust that what our pre-synod gathering has produced is a humble listening to the Holy Spirit and that the church hierarchy along with its “on the ground faithful” can build Christ’s church for the

World of today.- Animators ( Synod Feedback )
