INTRODUCTION TO SYNODALITY
📅 Date:Tuesdays 22 and 29 September
📍Location: Online Course
Most of what people try to tell us never actually lands. Not because they didn't say it — but because we weren't really listening.
What gets in the way of listening to one another? What might change if we learned to listen differently — not just to information, but to the person in front of us?
Because when we truly listen, something happens. It stops being transactional — one person giving, another receiving — and becomes an exchange of gifts, often unexpected. Every person carries something worth hearing, however small or unlikely it might seem to them, or to us.
This is what synodality is really about: not more talking, but a different way of being together — one shaped by prayer, silence, and the discipline of genuine attention. Not a talking shop. A way of walking together that actually moves.
The School for Synodality is offering a two-session Introduction to Synodality course for anyone who is new to synodality or would like to deepen their understanding of what it means to listen, pray and walk together as the Church.
The course is offered online via Zoom, with a choice of morning sessions (11.00am–1.00pm) or evening sessions (7.00pm–9.00pm) on Tuesdays 22 and 29 September 2026.
