Spirit Unbounded Welcomes the Format of the Synod Working Document “Human Rights in the Catholic Church” Event Brings Together Global Speakers to Address Questions of the Working Document for the Universal Synod in Rome Spirit Unbounded, the global community of Catholic reform and other Christian and ecumenical networks that share a vision of a just and inclusive church, welcomes the novel approach of the Instrumentum Laboris (IL) for the universal synod in Rome on 4–29 October. By asking questions rather than making declarative statements, the IL serves as a true working document. It leaves room for synod participants to discuss, debate, and discern together, and to conceive of new practices, both structural and theological, to help the church become more welcoming. Spirit Unbounded Brings a Wealth of Diverse Global Voices to October 8–14 Event “Human Rights in the Catholic Church,” a weeklong event organized and hosted by Spirit Unbounded and scheduled to coincide with the synod, will feature over seventy speakers representing all seven of the synod’s Continental Assemblies (Africa and Madagascar, Asia, Europe, Latin America and the Caribbean, the Middle East, North America, and Oceania). The diversity of speakers in terms of location, church experience, and focus will offer participants an opportunity to engage the questions of the Instrumentum Laboris in substantive and original ways.
