SUMMARY:Prayer Walk for Peace
DESCRIPTION:PRAYER WALK FOR PEACE – September 21st is the International Day of Prayer for Peace\, which people of faith around the world will be observing.  \n\n\n\nHere in Canada\, Christians are invited to join a Prayer Walk for Peace in support of the ministry of The Canadian Council of Churches (CCC). In a world longing for healing\, justice\, and reconciliation\, you are invited to “pray with your feet.”  \n\n\n\nWalk in your neighbourhood\, your church community\, or your city’s streets.

Others might gather for prayer after Sunday morning worship and then walk together in their church’s neighbourhood. Consider connecting with other Christian churches in the neighbourhood. Meet in a local park on Sunday afternoon\, share prayers for peace\, and then disperse for a quiet prayer walk in the beauty of God’s Creation. If you don’t walk\, join from a comfortable sitting room with the window open\, connected with friends\, colleagues and nature. Prayer is essential. All gifts are welcome. \n\n\n\nWhen you walk\, pray\, and give\, you help the CCC: \n\n\n\n\nAdvocate for justice and peace across Canada\n\n\n\nBuild interfaith and intercultural bridges\n\n\n\nStand with refugees and victims of trafficking\n\n\n\nFoster reconciliation with Indigenous communities\n\n\n\nEquip all of us to be a unifying voice of hope\n\n\n\n\nLaunch your personal campaign to support the Canadian Council of Churches’ work.

SUMMARY:Canadian Catholic Bishops gather for Plenary Assembly
DESCRIPTION:MEDIA RELEASE from the CCCB: LINK \n\n\n\nMembers of the Canadian Conference of Catholic Bishops (CCCB) — including Saskatoon’s bishop Most Rev Mark Hagemoen — will gather in Montreal\, Quebec\, for the annual meeting of the Plenary Assembly. This meeting is always focused on how the Bishops of Canada can serve the Church’s mission at the national level.  \n\n\n\nThe following are some of the topics that will be covered during that full week of discussion carried out under the guidance of the Holy Spirit: \n\n\n\n\nCCCB Elections – 2025 is an election year for the CCCB (i.e.\, elections take place once every two years)\, which means the Bishops will be asked to vote for new Executive Committee members (the President\, Vice President\, Co-Treasurer for the English Sector\, and Co-Treasurer for the French Sector)\, as well as for members on the Permanent Council which are not ex officio (Regional Representatives from the Atlantic\, Quebec\, Ontario\, and Western Episcopal Assemblies\, as well as Sectoral Representatives). All elections will take place by secret vote and the results will be announced at noon on Friday\, when they take effect.\n\n\n\nEpiscopal Commission for Christian Unity\, Religious Relations with Jews\, and Interfaith Dialogues – The Episcopal Commission for Christian Unity\, Religious Relations with the Jews\, and Interfaith Dialogue\, chaired by the Most Rev. Donald Bolen\, Archbishop of Regina\, will introduce its proposed National Ecumenical Strategy (NES) for possible approval. The NES is the culmination of two years of work responding to the CCCB’s earlier review of the various ecumenical and interfaith dialogues which it sponsors. As part of the plenary proceedings\, ecumenical guests present will be invited to provide their comments before a final version of the NES is submitted to the CCCB for approval.\n\n\n\n\n\nPastoral Reflection – 1700th Anniversary of the Council of Nicaea – In 2025\, the Church commemorates the 1700th anniversary of the Council of Nicaea\, the first Ecumenical Council held in 325 AD. This milestone invites Christians of all traditions – Catholic\, Orthodox\, and Protestant – to reflect on the Council’s enduring legacy\, to reaffirm the unity of faith articulated by the Council Fathers\, and to recommit to fostering Christian unity today. To mark this occasion during the Plenary Assembly meeting\, the Permanent Council has invited The Reverend Hieromonk Gregory Hrynkiw\, Ph.D.\, a Byzantine-Catholic monk from the Ukrainian Eparchy of Saskatoon\, to offer a pastoral reflection on the significance of this historic anniversary.\n\n\n\nStanding Committee for Responsible Ministry and the Protection of Minors and Vulnerable Persons – The Standing Committee for Responsible Ministry will lead a discussion on its proposed Action Plan to Implement the Recommendations in Protecting Minors from Sexual Abuse (2018). Following the plenary meeting\, a finalized version of the Action Plan will be sent to all diocesan and eparchial bishops as guidance for improving their safeguarding policies.\n\n\n\nSynod on “Synodality” – Bishop Alain Faubert will update the members on the newly established Ad hoc Committee on the Implementation of the Synod on Synodality\, and will outline how the CCCB can help Bishops at the local level during the implementation phase. This session will include a presentation recapping the Synodal Assembly last October\, the Final Document released by the Synod and later approved by Pope Francis\, the Implementation Phase and its pathways\, as well as the Committee’s mandate and membership. This will be followed by workshops and plenary session for Bishops to share reactions and expectations.\n\n\n\nArtificial Intelligence – The Church’s engagement with AI as a moral and social concern has grown in recent years. In January 2025\, the Dicasteries for the Doctrine of the Faith and for Culture and Education issued Antiqua et Nova\, examining AI and human intelligence\, and in June\, Pope Leo XIV highlighted the Church’s role in guiding ethical reflection on AI. To support Bishops in Canada\, the Permanent Council has invited Rev. Philip M. Larrey\, Ph.D.\, a scholar of philosophy and digital-era ethics\, to deliver this year’s Keynote Address.\n\n\n\nReports – The Bishops will receive numerous reports on the activities and projects of various CCCB bodies.\n\n\n\n\nAs is customary\, the Apostolic Nuncio to Canada\, Archbishop Ivan Jurkovič\, will address the Bishops in his capacity as the Pope’s representative in Canada. \n\n\n\nThis year\, the formal press conference will be held at the close of the Plenary Assembly meeting on Friday\, 26 September 2025\, at 1:30 p.m. ET. \n\n\n\nWhat is the meeting of the Plenary Assembly? \n\n\n\nA meeting of the Plenary Assembly is a solemn and important event in the life of the Church in Canada because it gathers together all the members of the Canadian Conference of Catholic Bishops (CCCB)\, who total 80 Bishops of the Latin and Eastern Churches across Canada. The Plenary Assembly of the Conference is its highest instance of authority. Decisions taken by the Plenary Assembly represent the unity of action of all the Bishops of Canada on a national level. Convoked at least once a year\, the Plenary Assembly considers a broad range of topics related to the Church’s evangelizing mission\, including reports and questions from the Episcopal Commissions and other advisory bodies of the Conference. The agenda\, which is set by the Permanent Council\, may also include discussions and pastoral reflections on special topics. Elections are held every two years to appoint members to leadership positions within the Conference. \n\n\n\n\nCatholic Bishops of Canada Gather for the Annual Meeting of the Plenary Assembly
