Returned Maryknoll lay missioner and freelance journalist Barbara Fraser (Class of 1989, Peru) is covering the Oct. 6-27, 2019 Synod of Bishops for the Amazon in Rome for Catholic News Service.

Check out her excellent reporting by looking for her by-line on Catholic News Service’s synod page.

Make sure you don’t miss her excellent piece on the “theology of creation”: God in all things: Synod looks at indigenous ‘theology of creation’

Also:

  • Indigenous woman brings message from her elders to pope as church elder
  • On feast of St. Francis, pope joins Amazonians to plant tree at Vatican

Barbara also wrote a great backgrounder on the synod for Maryknoll magazine and a 13-part background series for Catholic News Service in advance of the synod.
