Julieann Moran: Synodal Pathway Update…
| Happy New Year from the Irish Synodal Pathway Dear Friends, As we begin this New Year, I want to wish you every blessing for 2026. I am deeply grateful for your ongoing interest, support, and prayer as we continue to journey together along the Irish Synodal Pathway. This year promises to be an important one as we look ahead with hope and renewed commitment to living out synodality here in Ireland. In the coming weeks and months, I will be in touch with a range of resources, reflections, and updates to support this shared journey. In particular, I invite you to keep an eye out for our new resource for Lent, which will be launched on Friday in advance of the Feast of the Baptism of Our Lord (Sunday, 11 January). I hope it will be a helpful accompaniment for parishes, groups, and individuals during the Lenten season. I will also be sharing further information and updates regarding the working groups for the seven priorities identified through the Synodal Pathway, along with other relevant news and opportunities for engagement. Thank you for walking with us on this journey of faith and renewal. I look forward to staying connected with you throughout the year ahead. With every good wish and blessing for the New Year, Julieann p.s. I thought the beautiful Gospel scene by Barbara Bjelland below captures something of the journey we are on together: walking, listening, and discovering Christ present among us. . ![]() “Did Not Our Hearts Burn Within Us?” by Barbara Bjelland, www.barbarabjelland.com |
