Last week, Pope Francis appointed Fr Jan Nowotnik to the upcoming General Assembly of the Synod.
Vatican News spoke to Fr Nowotnik – who is Director of Mission for the Bishops’ Conference of England and Wales – about his reaction to being selected, and the importance of the October Assembly.“Seeing my name on the list,” says Fr Nowotnik, “felt quite an honour and a privilege.” He recognises the gravity of the moment, he says, and realises that “not only do I need to be praying quite hard at the moment, but also asking the prayers of those I know who will be supporting the process.”What’s the point of the upcoming assembly? For Fr Nowotnik, it has to do with Pope Francis’ desire for a Church that is “constitutively synodal”. The Synod, that is, should not be thought of as a one-off event, but rather as an ongoing way of coming together as a Church.
