To register for one of the upcoming listening session or to learn more about the Diocese of Dallas Synod, visit www.cathdal.org/synod.

The success of these listening sessions, and ultimately the Synod meeting in 2024, hinges upon the participation of all Catholics in the diocese. Your participation, and sharing your experience, will help accomplish the Bishop’s hope for this Synodal process, which is to develop a “pastoral plan that can listen to the wisdom and insights of all the members of the diocese”.
