Our “Community Conversation” series:
Community Conversation in February: The next Community Conversation will be on the Commonweal article: “Are We Protagonists Yet?” by Susan Bigelow Reynolds regarding the place of women in the synod’s working document. Reynolds reflects on how the Church speaks about women and examines the role of women in the Synod on Synodality’s Working Document for the Continental Stage.
Deacon Bob Meave will moderate discussion of the article. You can find the article here:
