As I reflect on our recent Synod Assembly, the words that our patron, St. Paul, addressed to the Philippians come to mind: “Every time I think of you, I give thanks to my God” (Phil. 1:3). I have been overwhelmed with a sense of gratitude each time I think of how God has blessed this local Church through the willingness of so many to be part of our Archdiocesan Synod. The liturgies, presentations, discussions and voting were all manifestations for me of the presence of the Holy Spirit and of the rich blessings that God has bestowed upon us.

It was “no accident” that the Synod Assembly began with Mass and a eucharistic procession, Archbishop Hebda said. “All of the work that we will be doing this weekend is to build up the unity of this local Church. For us as Catholic Christians, the Eucharist is a sign that we are all united in Jesus in the Eucharist. … The Holy Spirit makes us one.”

Concerted efforts to listen to the Holy Spirit’s inspiration have been made throughout the preparation process for the 2022 Archdiocesan Synod, since the process launched in September 2019. That will continue the first weekend in June during the Synod Assembly, the first Synod held in the Archdiocese of St. Paul and Minneapolis in more than 80 years.

For Bishop Joseph Williams, it’s no coincidence that his schedule in the weeks leading up to the 2022 Synod Assembly include confirmations of young people from across the Archdiocese of St. Paul and Minneapolis. Conferring that sacrament — one of the special roles reserved for a bishop — has allowed for greater reflection on the gifts of the Holy Spirit that confirmands receive in a new way, he said.

Prayer, presentations and discussion. Catholics who have participated in any part of the three-year 2022 Archdiocesan Synod process are unlikely to be surprised by the core elements of the Synod Assembly, scheduled for Pentecost weekend, June 3-5, at Cretin-Derham Hall in St. Paul.
