Description
The 34th Plenary Assembly of the Conference of Catholic Bishops of India (CCBI), held from 24th to 30th January, 2023, resolved to revitalize the 16 Commissions, the 7 Departments and the 4 Apostolates of the Conference as well as the Regional and Diocesan Commissions, through a pastoral planning process aimed at developing a comprehensive and coordinated approach to better serve the Catholic Church in India.
The CCBI decided to engage in this pastoral planning process, by responding to the question, lsquo;Where is God calling the Church to be by 2033? rsquo; It has been a yearlong process, involving five thousand members of the Latin Catholic Church in India, comprising of Bishops, Clergy, Religious, Women, Men and Youth.
This final Pastoral Plan document, titled ldquo;Journeying Towards a Synodal Church: CCBI Mission 2033 rdquo; is the fruit of a process of conversations in the Spirit.
Every individual must discern his or her potential contribution to realizing these plans at the parish, diocesan, regional and national levels. While the focus of the Plan has been on the National Commissions, the fruits of the planning would also benefit our Regions, Dioceses and Parishes.
This Pastoral Plan invites to participate in the synodal journey. By walking together, we shall tread new pathways, realising God rsquo;s invitation for us. It guides to cut through our comfort zones and take new directions, guided by the Spirit, living our mission as Christians, in communion with one another and participating in the life of the Church, as its committed members.
