Diocese of Geraldton Pastoral Plan for a Synodal Church
     
On the Feast of Christ the King Bishop Michael officially launched the Geraldton Diocese' Pastoral Plan for a Synodal Church at the 9.30am Mass in the Cathedral of St Francis Xavier Cathedral.

Bishop Michael concelebrated Mass with Fr Gerard Totañes V.G., the key organiser and Lead Facilitator of the Geraldton Synod.

The process of the Diocesan Synod took place throughout 2024 and 2025 where the Clergy of Diocese, Religious, Principals, Organisation Leaders and key parish people gathered in round table conversations. A process adapted from the recent Parramatta Synod.

At the conclusion of Mass Fr Gerard Totañes VG presented the Official Pastoral Plan of the Diocese to Bishop Michael.

The next phase is for Parishes to slowly implement the resolutions contained in the Plan.
