Archbishop Paul Etienne
(the Archbishop of Seattle and
brother of our Fr. Bernie
& Fr. Zach Etienne at Good Shepherd).
He was appointed by Pope Francis
to serve as a delegate to
the Synod held in Rome
which concluded in October 2024.
What Does It Mean to Become a Synodal Church?
The heart of the Synod was a call by the Holy Spirit for conversion and for all baptized to be “Partners in the Gospel.” Archbishop Etienne will share with us the process of the Synod, which involved prayerful reflection, respectful listening and consultation.
Participants had the opportunity to leave enriched spiritually and have a greater energy and commitment to be active members, moving forward,
carrying out the mission of Jesus Christ!
