Synod: A brief update

Every Bishop’s conference in the world was expected to submit a ten-page synthesis report of the 10-page diocesan reports by August 15. The Vatican’s synod office will now distill the results into an “Instrumentum Laboris” or working document for the 2023 meeting of bishops in Rome.
