THE CCEE MALTA, NOVEMBER 27-30,2023

CCEE MALTA November 27-30, 2023
“New steps for a synodal Church in Europe”.
Cyprus was represented by The Archbishop of the Maronite in Cyprus, H.E. Mgr. Selim Sfeir
The challenges for the Church in Europe are broad and range from the need to implement the synodal path desired by Pope Francis to the issues of defending life in the face of a society increasingly at the mercy of the “culture of death”, as well as various facts of recent news, including the response to abuse, artificial intelligence, and questions of justice and peace. Archbishop Gintaras GRUŠAS, President of the Council of European Bishops’ Conferences, outlined these challenges in a broad speech that kicked off the work of the CCEE Plenary.
The Plenary is being held in Malta from 27 to November 30 and brings together the 39 members of the Council. Thirty-three of them are Presidents of National Bishops’ Conferences. They are joined by the Archbishops of Luxembourg, the Principality of Monaco, the Maronite Archbishop of Cyprus, as well as the Bishops of Chişinău (Moldova) of the Eparchy of Mukachevo and of the Apostolic Administration of Estonia, who represent the Catholic Church on the European continent across 45 countries.
