Pope Francis needs help from young Catholics, as well as all others in the Diocese of Cleveland and around the world.
As preparations get under way for an October 2018 synod in Rome, Church officials hope to glean information from the faithful that will be used to develop a pastoral guide on how the Church is encountering young adults and how it can better help young people to encounter Jesus.
This short video will explain how you can help.

The three-part survey includes statistics, questions and sharing of practices. Access it online at dioceseofcleveland.org/15synod. Select the appropriate survey from those developed for Catholic young adults, Catholic youth ages 16-19, parents and staff, non-Catholic youth ages 16-19 or clergy and religious. The process should take only a few minutes.
The survey also is available in Spanish.
?Our Church loves you and needs you and is incomplete without you,? said Father Michael McCandless, director of the diocesan vocation office.
