Incontro annuale con i moderatori delle associazioni internazionali di fedeli, dei movimenti ecclesiali e delle nuove comunità

Annual Meeting with Moderators of Associations of the Faithful, Ecclesial Movements, and New Communities

New Synod Hall, June 13th, 2024

Around 200 participants attended the Annual Meeting with the Moderators of Associations of the Faithful, Ecclesial Movements, and New Communities, organised by the Dicastery for Laity, Family and Life (DLFL) which took place in the New Synod Hall in Vatican City on Thursday, 13 June 2024.

The theme of the Meeting is ‘The Challenge of Synodality for Mission’. The Church, through the Synod on Synodality, is experiencing a prolonged time of consultation, reflection and dialogue to fully implement the synodal dimension, which is part of its nature as a mystery of communion, in the image of Trinitarian communion.

This year's Meeting with the Moderators of international associations aims to highlight some examples of synodal structures and practices already implemented in associations and movements that can be an example and stimulus for the whole Church, such as sharing experiences of faith within small groups or small communities, community discernment, co-responsibility of lay and ordained ministers in assuming roles of governance, involvement of married couples and young people in evangelisation, charitable and social action, etc.

Participants in the Annual Meeting with Moderators were invited to reflect also on synodal dimensions that pose new challenges to the growth of associations and movements.
