Archbishop John Nienstedt is asking Catholics from all walks of life in the Archdiocese of St. Paul and Minneapolis to share their concerns and ideas about family life today.
A survey, emailed and written responses and listening sessions all are part of gathering input that the U.S. bishops will offer as part of the “lineamenta,” the preparation document for the Synod on the Family in October, “The Vocation and Mission of the Family in the Church and Contemporary World.”
Background information may be found here.
Catholics can offer input by the March 10 deadline four ways:
- Take the electronic survey.
- Offer concerns and ideas via email to stolpestadj@archspm.org.
- Mail concerns and ideas to:
