Highlights from CCUSA

Catholic Charities and the synodal process

On October 17, all dioceses around the globe will embark on a six-month listening process to discern what steps the Holy Spirit invites us to take in order to journey together as a Church. This effort, entitled “For a Synodal Church: Community, Participation, and Mission,” envisions broad consultation across the Church and beyond. Pope Francis has stressed that genuine efforts must be made to include persons at the margins, such as “…the poor, the homeless, young people addicted to drugs, everyone that society rejects…” Catholic Charities can fulfill a critical role by helping to identify and solicit such voices for individual diocesan reports, which will be submitted to the USCCB in preparation for the Vatican’s international Synod of Bishops in October 2023. To help Catholic Charities leaders understand and participate in this initiative, a video panel conversation has been scheduled for Tuesday, Oct. 12, 2021, at 3 PM ET, featuring the following speakers: • Msgr. John Enzler, President and CEO of Catholic Charities of the Archdiocese of Washington; • Lacy de la Garza of Catholic Charities of Dallas, who is directing the synodal process for the Diocese of Dallas; and • Yohan Garcia, Catholic Social Teaching Education Coordinator at the Justice, Peace and Human Development Department at the USCCB.
