For six months, people throughout our diocese responded to Pope Francis’ call to the Synod on Synodality by sharing their hopes, concerns and dreams for the Catholic Church. Some participated at listening sessions, and many others through an online survey. Through this participation, many themes began to emerge.

To learn more and to review the synthesis report, please visit the Synod on Synodality page on our diocesan website, www.dioceseofscranton.org.
