Please pray for the Church in Ireland as it prepares for our national assembly in October, to reflect upon the themes that have emerged on the synodal journey over the past five years, may we, as a community of disciples, have the courage and conviction to respond to His call to live the Gospel anew and be open to the new possibilities the Lord is offering us at this time.
The National Synodal Pathway has reached an important moment in its journey. Currently, the working groups are meeting periodically to explore more deeply the seven priorities identified by the Catholic Church in discerning what God is asking of the Church in Ireland today.
