The first of two online Synod Listening Sessions sponsored by DignityUSA will be happening Saturday, February 26, 2022. The session begins at 2:00 PM Eastern/11:00 AM Pacific time and is scheduled to run about 90 minutes. This is your last chance to register for this session!
We encourage you to think through the following preparatory questions before joining the session: As an LGBTQI Catholic or ally, what have been your joys in your journey of faith? Where have you heard God’s voice and felt God’s love? When have you felt supported, seen, and valued in the Church, in Dignity, or in the LGBTQI community? What experiences in the Church have brought you pain, disappointment, or exclusion? In what ways has being on the margins impacted your relationship with God and your relationship with the Church—for good or for ill? What hopes do you have for the Catholic Church? What message do you have for Pope Francis and the Synod of Bishops? We hope to see you Saturday. If you cannot attend this Listening Session, there is another opportunity on Thursday, March 24 at 8:00 PM ET/5:00 PM PT. Register for the second session now If you are planning to attend a parish or diocesan Listening Session, we have a Synod Listening Session Participation Guide that could be helpful. |
