The Holy Father Pope Francis calls everyone to participate in the upcoming Synod of Bishops. From 2021 – 2023, the whole Catholic Church is encouraged to participate in the forthcoming Synod called: “For a Synodal Church: Communion, Participation, and Mission.”
The term synod is derived from the Greek word (synodos), which means “meeting” or “assembly.” Synod is made up of two Greek words: syn, which means “together,” and hodos, which means “way” or “journey”.
