Saying that retired Pope Benedict XVI was “very sick,” Pope Francis asked people to offer special prayers for him. “I would like to ask all of you for a special prayer for emeritus Pope Benedict,” Pope Francis said at the end of his weekly general audience Dec. 28. The 95-year-old retired pope “is sustaining the church in silence,” Pope Francis said. “Remember him. He is very sick. Ask the Lord to console him and sustain him in his witness of love for the church until the very end,” Pope Francis said.

Lord, bless all volunteers, who go out to encounter the flesh of Christ, to touch it, to care for it, to be close to it. And have mercy on the many who, in the face of all this poverty, simply turn their backs and who hear in their hearts a voice which says: “This does not affect me, this is not important to me”. Help all volunteers, and give them strength, making them humble. Keep them close to the merciful heart of Jesus. Amen.

“Synod” means “meeting.” While meetings happen regularly in dioceses, a diocesan synod is a special kind of meeting called by the diocesan bishop that brings together a large group of people from varied backgrounds to discuss the pastoral ministry of a diocese. Its purpose is to propose standards to the diocesan bishop for setting the direction of the pastoral ministry in the diocese for years to come.
