SYNOD FOR THE AMAZON
The Synod for the Amazon "New paths for the Church and for an Integral Ecology" is an opportunity to contribute to the transformation of our Church. We are being called to pray and to dialogue.

The Amazonia is a vital region for the humanity’s survival. Pope Francis desires a Church with an Amazonian face. But what does this mean? It is important that local communities say so. The indigenous community protects the territory and the territory houses a community. This balance between community and territory is something that in other parts of the world is no longer taken into account. It has disappeared. We must learn from them.

Here some resources to accompany our Church in this special time.
