  • Living Synodality in the Archdiocese

    Wondering what our local Church is doing about Synodality?  What is synodality? Simply put it is the act of “journeying together.”  In 2024 the late Pope Francis invited the worldwide Church to embark on a journeying together that included truly listening to one another, communal discernment of where God is calling our Church, and active participation by all members of the Church: lay people, religious and clergy – together.

    In the Archdiocese of Halifax-Yarmouth we have been living synodality in a number of ways.
