Together-Juntos-Insieme: a platform for formation in Synodality

We are now in the third phase of the Synodal process: the phase of implementation, in which we put into practice what we have learned from the Synodal methodology and discern where further growth is needed.

For this reason, training on the subject continues: on 20 October, a MOOC (massive open online course) will begin, promoted by various organisations in Latin America and the Caribbean: CELAM (Consejo Episcopal Latinoamericano y Caribeño), CLAR (Confederación Latinoamericana de Religiosos), JST-SCU (The Jesuit School of Theology at Santa Clara University), OLS (Latin American Observatory on Synodality) and our organisation, WUCWO, all of which are recognised under the synodal ecosystem network: Together-Juntos-Insieme. This initiative will bring together thousands of people around the world to offer them an introduction to the Final Document of the Synod on Synodality and promote its practical implementation.

"This MOOC is part of the synodal journey that the Church is undertaking today: a process of listening, discernment and shared building. More than a content-based course, it is an experience of formation and commitment — open and free — for all those who wish to walk together in a living, synodal Church." (Red Together)

Participants are invited to read and familiarise themselves with the Synod's Final Document on Synodality before taking the course, as this will help them to explore the topics in greater depth.

Who can register?

All those who are interested, because learning to be a synodal Church is a commitment shared by all.

"The WWO School of Synodality participates in this educational ecosystem to promote the synodal methodology, both among women and among other members of the People of God, so that together we may become a synodal Church in mission, in which each person, particularly women, can fully and responsibly carry out their mission" (WWO of the WUCWO).

The last synod was characterised by a large and full presence of women. We seek to continue offering opportunities for formation and participation in synodal conversations, so that this spiritual methodology of synodality permeates all communities and supports women’s participation at all levels.

" We were able to witness to the first fruits of the synodal journey that began in 2021,

the simplest and most precious of which mature in the life of families, parishes, movements, small Christian communities, schools and other movements. This is where the practice of conversation in the Spirit, community discernment, sharing of vocational gifts and coresponsibility in the mission is growing." (Final Document n. 7)
