From The Salt Lake Tribune:
A newly released schedule for the second and final session of the Vatican Synod on Synodality underlines the Catholic Church’s plan to promote dialogue with other Christian denominations, enhance transparency and take responsibility for past mistakes.
After a two-day spiritual retreat at the Paul VI Hall at the Vatican, synod delegates will gather at St. Peter’s Basilica on Oct. 2 for a penitential celebration, where members of the church will ask forgiveness for a number of sins, including sins of abuse, sins against migrants and the environment and sins against women and youth. The event also includes penitence for the sin of “using doctrine as stones to be hurled” and sins against synodality, described as a “lack of listening, communion and participation of all.”
