Diocesan Synod
To discern what the Holy Spirit is saying to the Church in Salford at this next stage of our journey.
Synod Implementation - June 2025
'Our Diocese continues its journey of renewal and listening, begun by the Synod process. A Synod Implementation Team has been formed to guide the four key areas identified at our voting day in March. Each grouping of Leadership and Collaboration, Community and Outreach, Young People and Schools, and Spirituality and Formation, have their own dedicated subgroup. As these teams begin their work, two recommendations are already developing. The Community and Outreach group is recommending the establishment of Welcome Teams in every parish. Parishes are encouraged to share their good practice on Welcome and are asked to form Teams by the First Sunday of Advent. Ideas and opinions are being gathered which may promote appropriate support structures for our clergy.
Let us continue to pray that we may discern what the Holy Spirit is saying to the Church, and to our Diocese, in these times.'

Jubilee Year
Pope Francis declared 2025 as a Holy Year of Jubilee for the church. The theme is Pilgrims of Hope . The pilgrims of Hope Jubilee presents each one of us with an opportunity to reignite the flame of our faith in our own hearts and to share the light of faith with those in darkness. More information on the Jubilee can be found below.
We can continue to Journey Together as 'Pilgrims of Hope' and to commend our prayers to the Lord for his intentions during this year.
Have a look at what has been happening in the Jubilee Calendar below and what is yet to come!
