Synod: New reports propose changes in the relationship with bishops

The General Secretariat of the Synod published new reports with proposals to change the relationship between dioceses and consecrated life communities, requesting the creation of mandatory diocesan cooperation agreements on mission, formation, gender equality and patrimony management, as well as the appointment of a vicar for consecrated life in each diocese. The second report proposes greater participation of the laity in the preparation of the "ad limina" visits to the Vatican, advocating that a diocesan representation accompany the bishop and that the Holy See establish an independent commission to evaluate the process. These documents, prepared by study groups instituted by the Pope, do not represent final decisions, but indicate directions for operational proposals to be submitted to the Holy Father.
