Synods on Synodality—Implementation in Local Churches

Our Assembly

On Tuesday, January 13, 2026, Father Jean-Claude Véder presented Pope Francis’s synod on synodality to the clergy of Mauritius, highlighting its implementation in the Diocese of Port-Louis.

This process (2021–2028) aims to make the Church a more participatory and inclusive community through such means as consultation, discernment, and concrete actions in the dioceses.

He calls for spiritual and missionary conversion, inviting every member of the faithful to experience a Church that is more accessible, attentive, and committed to evangelization.
