About this sermon
The initial nearly month-long gathering for the Synod on Synodality has come to a close and the Vatican is now considering a larger role for lay people. The report outlined key proposals discussed during the month long assembly's confidential conversations. The report summarized the deliberations over the weeks and incorporated more than 1,150 proposed amendments to the text. The 344 voting members approved all of the proposed paragraphs with the required two-thirds majority, which for the first time included women and other non-bishops as voting members. The text was approved paragraph by paragraph. In the press briefing on the final day, Cardinal Mario Grech, the General Secretary of the Synod, expressed his gratitude for how the participants were open to listening and finding consensus. On Sunday, Pope Frances celebrated Mass in St. Peter's Basilica where he marked the end of this first session of the Synodal process.
