The upcoming Synod on Synodality in the Catholic Church has garnered attention for its potential impact on doctrinal matters, but local Catholic leaders in the U.S. are more interested in how it will address practical issues such as evangelization and seminary formation. The focus on evangelization and missionary outreach is seen as crucial for recapturing the apostolic spirit of the early Church. However, many lay leaders are still trying to understand the full meaning of synodality and its implications for the Church. The concept of synodality, when understood as collaboration between clergy and laity in fulfilling the mission of the Church, could help foster healing and trust within the Church.
