St. Kateri Tekakwitha Parish Synod Discussions

Over the next five weeks there is an opportunity to participate in the Synod process by answering the questions below. One question will be highlighted to respond to each week, or if you so desire you can answer all of them at once. There also will be an opportunity to participate in a Zoom meeting on these questions, see below how to participate. These questions were selected by our Communications Committee, with the deadline for submission of your responses being Wednesday, February 23rd, 2022. After the deadline, the Communications Committee will submit a summary of the responses to the Diocese, for inclusion in the Synod process.

These are the five questions:

Week of January 23rd

1. In your opinion, what issues in the Church should we be paying attention to?

2. Attendance at Church is dwindling. What are your thoughts and feelings about this?

4. Words are important. What are the words that would inspire us as people of the Church?
