Respect Life Synod Listening Session set with Bishop Ed
Bishop Edward B. Scharfenberger will take part in a Respect Life Synod Listening Session on June 2 at 7:45 p.m., via Zoom. The session is for Respect Life representatives, volunteers or anyone involved or interested in Respect Life activities in the Diocese of Albany.
In this unique and perhaps once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, your anonymous responses to discussion questions during this session may be used to guide the future of the Church. The session will be guided by a facilitator utilizing universal questions and will provide the opportunity for small group breakout sessions. Volunteers are needed to facilitate group discussions and take notes.
Please RSVP to Renée Morgiewicz, diocesan coordinator of Parish Services and Respect Life Ministry, via her email ([email protected]) by May 30 to receive the ZOOM link.
