« Il faut un synode de la solidarité pour sauver l’engagement social de l’Église »

In brief

A group of Catholic leaders is calling for a synod of solidarity within the Church in France to protect its social mission. The collective issued this warning as the Ciedel of Lyon, an organization involved in Christian social work for nearly seventy years, faces potential collapse.

The group's appeal comes as Pope Leo XIV prepares for a visit to France. They argue that a synod dedicated to solidarity is necessary to preserve the Church's commitment to social engagement.
