Archbishop Florencio Roselló launches Diocese of Pamplona y Tudela's Pastoral Plan

Archbishop Florencio Roselló launched the Diocese of Pamplona y Tudela's pastoral plan, titled "Ponte en camino!", during an event on Saturday, September 26. The plan seeks to create a missionary Church that does not close itself off from the world.

More than 500 people attended the gathering, including priests, laity, consecrated life, consecrated virgins, seminarians, permanent deacons, parishes, and movements. Because the assembly hall reached capacity, organizers opened an adjacent room so attendees could watch the proceedings on screens.

Cardinal José Cobo, the Archbishop of Madrid, spoke at the event about synodality, describing it as an essential part of the Church rather than a temporary trend. He spoke about the importance of a Church involving all baptized members, where pastors see themselves as part of the people and laypeople are active participants.
