CWN Editor's Note: The top leaders of the General Secretariat of the Synod have written to Pope Leo XIV, congratulating him on his election and pointedly calling for the continued growth of “a missionary synodal Church.”
The Synod leaders say that they “look with confidence to the directions you will indicate,” and assure the new Pontiff that their office will be “fully available to offer its service in a spirit of collaboration and obedience.” The message is signed by Cardinal Mario Grech, Archbishop Luis Marin de San Martin, and Sister Nathalie Becquart—the secretary and under-secretaries, respectively, of the Synod secretariat.
In their message they say that the Synod “involves the entire People of God in a shared process, where each person contributes to discerning the steps to take, according to the charisms, vocations, and ministries received.”
