Are you interested in dialogue with fellow Catholics? June 15-18 in Waterloo, join laity, clergy, and religious from across Canada, in the spirit of synodality to explore the challenges and the joys, the hopes and the fears that go with trying to follow Jesus in our place and time.

We are all members of God’s family, and God speaks through everyone. If we want to come closer to God, we must come closer to one another – in a spirit of genuine encounter. How do we do this? By learning and practicing the synodal process that was modeled at the Synod in Rome. Join us June 15-18 in Waterloo, for Journey of Encounter - Pilgrims of Hope Embracing Synodality. Visit www.synodalchurch.ca for more info.
