Bishops process into St. Peter’s Basilica for the closing Mass of the first assembly of the Synod on Synodality on Oct. 29.

‘Only through silent adoration will the Word of God live in our words; only in his presence will we be purified, transformed and renewed by the fire of his Spirit,’ Francis said Oct. 29. ‘Love of God and neighbor: that is the heart of everything.’
