We Are the People of God
In October 2023, Pope Francis convened the First Session of the Universal Stage of the Synod on Synodality. Bishops, religious, and lay men and women from around the world gathered to listen to one another and discern the voice of the Holy Spirit as expressed in the local, diocesan, and continental stages which preceded the Universal Stage. While delegates from around the world – including four from England and Wales – gathered in person in Rome, Clifton Diocese ran a series of webinars to invite our parishioners to discern alongside them. The speakers were Bishop John Arnold (Salford Diocese), Dr Gemma Simmonds CJ, Dr Greg Ryan, Jenny Sinclair, and Canon Philip Inch.
