Just a little update, the Synthesis of the Synod Assembly is being written and edited today I believe, so blessings on all the writers and editors!

👉 “Our theme is, therefore, mission,” Cardinal Jean-Claude Hollerich said Friday morning in his presentation on the third “module” of the work of the General Assembly of the Synod of Bishops. The Synod’s Relator General highlighted the fact that the call to mission extends to all the members of the Church, while reminding his listeners that mission is intrinsically connected to the earlier topic of “communion”. 👀 🙏 The theme of mission, he said, “continually emerged in the work of the second module: communion is not closed in on itself but is impelled towards mission; at the same time, the purpose of mission is precisely to extend the scope of communion.” If you want to read the complete article, find it here👈

In the last chapter of a book from Piero Coda, theologian belonging to the Focolare movement, ca lled 'Chiesa Sinodale nell'oggi della storia' (only in Italian), the writer makes an interesting link between Mary and a Synodal Church. We are all invited to enter into the school of Mary and grow into her style of life "meditating on what we have heard and seen". He refers to the place Mary has relating to the Church as described in Lumen Gentium of Vatican II and to the message of Pope Francis for the Feast of Mary, Mother of the Church in 2022. Mary is the principle and the profile of the Church being the mother of the Son of God.
