What is One in the Spirit? We are a group of single people over the age of 35 who gather to praise the Lord, socialize, and support each other on our faith journey. Our simple prayer is that we respond to our various callings with courage and faith, in unity with the Holy Spirit, and the Holy Family – our Church.

Synod Resources

We are continuing to include on the synodresources.org website some resources that come to us from various parts of the world, such as the song “Walking Together” by the African Synodality Initiative (to see and listen to) or How to conduct listening sessions with people with disabilities from the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops. And much more…

The African Synodality Initiative presents “Walking Together,” a song written and arranged by Francis Kyalo SJ. It was produced in partnership with the Bosco Eastern Africa Multimedia Services (BEAMS) in Nairobi, Kenya.

Enjoy!
