Practical resource for the implementation of the synodal process in Mexico

The Bishops’ Conference of Mexico (CEM) offers a practical resource to help dioceses walk a local synodal journey,  and aligned with CELAM, addressing real-life challenges like:

1. 1. Cultural diversity & popular religiosity
   2. Urban and rural realities
   3. Youth seeking meaning
   4. Migration, poverty, and violence
   5. Indigenous communities & existential peripheries

Goals of the Mexican Synodal Resource:

1. ✨ Form diocesan synodal teams to guide and coordinate the process
2. ✨ Cultivate synodal spirituality in bishops, clergy, consecrated life, and laity
3. ✨ Promote formation through reflection, workshops, and courses
4. ✨ Integrate synodality into pastoral plans, not as a parallel program
5. ✨ Create safe spaces for dialogue, discernment, and diverse voices
6. ✨ Evaluate the journey using Gospel-based criteria etc
