In late July of 2018, Pope Francis ratified five members elected by the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB) to represent the United States at the upcoming Synod of Bishops (October 3-28). The Synod will focus on “Young People, the Faith, and Vocational Discernment.”
One of the chosen delegates is Bishop Robert Barron, and he was interviewed about the Synod in the National Catholic Reporter.
