The Lineamenta, or outline for the XIV Ordinary General Assembly to take place Oct. 4-25, 2015, will focus on the topic, “The Vocation and Mission of the Family in the Church and in the Contemporary World.” Although the synod is for the Catholic Bishops, Pope Francis is interested in the views o the faithful. To read an invitation to participate from Archbishop of Cincinnati Dennis M Schnurr, follow the link below. From there, there are additional links to background material and a survey.
