The People's Synod Announced

All global indicators point to CHANGE. Science tells us about the Big Bang and the ongoing history of the cosmos. A living faith tells us that God's creation continues to emerge toward a peace and oneness for which we all yearn. We as people of God can contribute to this emergence by coming to the first-ever Peoples Synod in Dallas, October 12-14, 2018, to experience deep listening - a new method of dialogue that brings people together.

This gathering is not only about what happens at the event, but far more about what the participants take home and do with it afterwards.
