Our Questions of the Week

What’s This All About?

Pope Francis wants to hear from all of us – the whole Church! The way he has asked us to do this is through a “synodal” process. “Synodal” means “journeying together” and it involves speaking boldly and listening deeply to each other and to the Holy Spirit to discern the Church we are called to be! He is inviting us to share our joys, our sorrows, and our dreams for the Church. All voices must be heard, especially those on the margins – no one is to be left behind or excluded!

Here at the St. John-St. Paul Collaborative we are offering in-person and virtual Intentional Listening Sessions as well as a “Question of the Week” that can be answered here on this page.

Please consider reaching out to friends, family members, neighbors, and others who are no longer connected to the church to tell them what the Pope is asking.

Let them know that the Church just wants to LISTEN – no names, no discussion, no strings attached! Use the “Question of the Week” to engage with them. Listen deeply to their answer and record it – without any response other than “thank you”. You can submit their response using the link below or by dropping it in one of the drop-boxes in the churches.

A new question will appear below each week – check back each week for another question! If you missed a question, scroll down!
