About this title

Synopsis

"Synodality is not democracy but something well upstream of it. Reading these chapters, you realize just how much a healthy democracy depends on the virtues and practices of synodality... This is a journey of profound conversion now for the church. But not so long from now, its harvest will be reaped by humanity."
―from the foreword

Witnesses of Synodality provides the faithful and clergy with models for good practices, inspires them with examples, and equips them with concrete tools for building a synodal church.

"Witnesses of Synodality offers a rich tapestry of synodal experiences, sharing concrete examples and practices. It presents diverse perspectives from religious orders, parishes, diocesan, and continental contexts in connection with the global synod on synodality, providing invaluable insights for implementing Pope Francis’ vision of synodality that is most of all a learning by doing."
―Sr. Nathalie Becquart, xmcj, Undersecretary, General Secretary of the Synod
