I really appreciate your reflections, Chris. Our family didn’t participate in any synod sessions because they happened so soon after we moved, and seemed to be advertised to get perspectives on topics in particular parish settings. As we yet don’t have a parish “home,” we couldn’t really contribute in this way, but we would have valued the opportunity to participate as relative newcomers with outside perspectives on local parish culture, vice views on existing parish experiences.
Our Archdiocesan Synod's missed opportunities
Our Blessed Mother & Christ have often appeared to people in a form and manner in which the individual would be familiar. A blessed Adventus to you.

Excellent takedown. Is the Archdiocese listening?
