The Synod provides our faith community the opportunity to implement the archbishop’s pastoral priorities of Catholic Identity, Evangelization and Stewardship
Beginning in February 2022, a process of consultation for the 2021-2023 International Synod on Synodality began here in the Archdiocese of Milwaukee. This consultation included consultative gatherings with various groups, parish gatherings, and opportunities for individuals to submit feedback.
This event focused on the Mission that ignited the 2014 Archdiocesan Synod, the fruits that have come from the Synod, how we continue to be led by the Holy Spirit, and what Archbishop Listecki would like to accomplish in his final years as Archbishop of the Archdiocese of Milwaukee.
Our focus on moving from "maintenance to mission" was continued with this Leadership Conference focusing on the Spirituality of Stewardship.
This event celebrated the implementation of the archdiocesan Synod; what we have begun and look to where we are going in the future.
