In this first of three episodes, Julieann Moran, Fr Éamonn Fitzgibbon and Julie Kavanagh explore what synodality really means, not as another programme or initiative, but as a way of being Church.

They reflect on the Irish Synodal Pathway and the Universal Synod, and how we can learn by doing as we seek to embed synodality in our parishes and communities.

No matter how challenging the topics or how difficult the conversations, the synodal process has shown the importance of listening deeply and valuing each voice. Through their discussion, the hosts invite us to discover how walking, listening, and discerning together can help us become the kind of Church we are called to be.

In this episode, Julieann Moran, Fr Éamonn Fitzgibbon and Julie Kavanagh look ahead with hope to the next steps on the Irish Synodal Pathway.

As the Pre-Synodal Assembly in Kilkenny approaches, they explore the preparatory document Baptised and Sent and how baptism has emerged as the key lens through which to view all seven priorities for action.

The hosts reflect on what it truly means to say that we are all equal in baptism; that baptism is not simply a past event, but an ongoing reality that shapes who we are as members of the Church and followers of Christ. Because we are baptised, we are called to participate, to be on mission, and to live in communion with one another – sharing in the priestly, prophetic, and kingly ministry of Jesus Christ.
