Bishop Gary Gordon invites you to help chart a course for our journey together, now and in the future, as the people of God. 


A synod is a listening and discernment process. The word synod is derived from an ancient Greek term that means “coming together” or “travelling together.”

Bishop Gary announced the formation of the Diocesan Permanent Pastoral Synod (DPPS) at Pentecost 2023. Now, we continue this journey, renewing the cycle of listening and discerning each year, with new questions emerging in every cycle.
