   • 2023 October 2, Jason Horowitz, Elisabetta Povoledo, quoting Pope Francis, “What Is a Synod in the Catholic Church? And Why Does This One Matter?”, in The New York Times‎, →ISSN:

     “I am well aware that speaking of a ‘Synod on Synodality’ may seem something abstruse, self-referential, excessively technical, and of little interest to the general public,” Pope Francis said in August. But, he added, it “is something truly important for the church.”
