SYNOD ON SYNODALITY
ROOM FOR EVERYONE IN OUR CHURCH
Thursday 14 September 2023
7.00pm AEST
The next Synod session this October will be crucial as it will set the tone and lay the groundwork for the second Synod in October 2024.
The open consultative, listening style of the Instrumentum Laboris must be established as the normal operating procedure of the Church to enable it to regain credibility and relevance. Particular issues such as the status of women, LGBTQI+, and remarried people must be resolved responsibly.
The focus of the Synod on Synodality – Room for Everyone in Our Church convocation will be a discussion on these issues. Leading the discussion is one of the ACBC’s representatives at the Synod, Shane Mackinlay, Bishop of Sandhurst (Vic). We hope you can join us as we build this new way of being Church.
