Bulletin Announcements on Synods and Synodality # 14
The call for worldwide synodality #14
Cardinal Grech, the General Secretary of the Synod of Bishops, recalled in the proclamation of this Synod, that synods were a typical practice of the first millennium of the Church, a practice that continued within the Orthodox Church. He described this process as “ a great vision, which unites the tradition of the Eastern and Western Churches, giving to a synodal Church that principle of unity that was even lacking in the Church of the Fathers…from this synodal journey, we can also expect with confidence great fruits on the ecumenical level.” https://bit.ly/3d42VEg (Synod of Bishops website for interview)
