Diocesan Synod Survey

The Archdiocese of Suva Synod will be launched in the FMF Gymnasium on Pentecost Sunday, May 20th, 2018 at 3.00pm The Consultative Phase of the Synod aims to allow the faithful to participate in the synod. We do this by conducting a diocesan survey. The survey asks people for their opinion and aspirations about the Church. As of February we have received only 997 survey forms (10% of the catholic population). I ask parish priests to encourage the faithful to participate in the survey. I recommend that each parish establish a synod team who will be responsible for the survey. The survey is a wonderful opportunity to listen to the people regarding the Church in Fiji. I am attaching the results of the survey as of February.
