Your Invitation To Be Heard

During this next month, St. Austin’s will be participating in the Synod on Synodality. Through the Synod, the Church asks us to participate in a journey of discernment. We are called to pray and reflect upon the Holy Spirit’s will for the Church. 

The Diocese has given us a February 1 deadline to submit a report from the parish. To meet that deadline, we'll meet with a limited number of smaller groups.

We'll also hold two larger town hall listening sessions. One in-person session will be held in the church and the second by Zoom.

In-Person Session:  Saturday, January 22
                        9:30 - 11:30 a.m.
                        St. Austin Church
Zoom Session:      Monday, January 24
                        6:30 - 8:30 p.m.
                     
In these January listening sessions, we'll focus on a number of questions. We’ll start with the Fundamental Questions and then as time allows, we’ll hope for the opportunity to explore the Digging Deeper Questions. 

I anticipate that we will not have time to address every question but you are always welcome to follow up with any additional thoughts by emailing me at [email protected].

Again, I really appreciate your willingness to be a part of this process and I look forward to listening to what each of you has to share.
