Synod Implementation at OLG…
We are in the implementation stage of the Archdiocesan Synod process. We are here because of the generosity and dedication of many parishioners and staff who participated in the Synod Consultation process or represented the parish at the Synod Assembly.
We appreciate the volunteers and staff on the diocesan level who prayerfully worked through the thousands of forms and even more comments in order to give informed feedback to Archbishop Hebda.
Archdiocesan Evangelization Prayer:
“Holy Spirit, renew your wonders in our time, as though in a new Pentecost, and grant that this Archdiocese, united in prayer around Mary, the Mother of Jesus, and guided by St. Peter, may spread the Kingdom of the divine Savior, a Kingdom of truth, of justice, of love, and of peace. Amen.”
Saint Paul, our great missionary patron, pray for us!
Adapted from the Prayer of St. John XXIII at the calling of the Second Vatican Council.
