| Summary: | The Church is called to live the faith in a synodal way by journeying toward Christ together through time and circumstances, with the goal of evangelization. Pope Francis has repeatedly emphasized synodality understood as believers listening to each other and to the Holy Spirit in all dimensions of ecclesial life, always cum Petro and sub Petro. The Church’s synodality has Trinitarian, Christological, and Pneumatological-Mariological foundations. Its practice involves a spirituality of discernment expressed in the postures of recognizing, interpreting, and choosing. In the discipline of the Church, it is carried out through co-responsibility at the universal and intermediate levels and especially at the local level of the diocese and of the parish. |
