    • Pastoral Letter on Synodality [August 2021]


      Bishop Paul Hinder has released his new Pastoral letter titled,  “Let us go with you, for we have heard that God is with you” (Zechariah 8:23), on 15 August 2021, addressed to all the faithful of the Apostolic Vicariates of Northern and Southern Arabia.

      The letter reflects on the Synod 2021-2023 with the topic “For a synodal Church: Communion, Participation, and Mission”. The Synod will be officially inaugurated by Pope Francis on 9 - 10 October 2021 in Rome. 

      The Pope encourages the synod to be celebrated in each of the local churches all over the world. The formal ceremony for both (the Northern and Southern) Vicariates will be held on Friday, 15 October 2021 at St. Joseph’s Cathedral, Abu Dhabi.

      In his pastoral letter, Bishop Paul highlights the importance of journeying together by listening to each other and explains how the synodal process will work at the local level.

      The Bishop invites all the faithful to actively participate in the synodal process.

    • Pastoral Letter on St. Joseph [March 2021]


      On 25 February 2021, the Dedication of the Cathedral Church of St. Joseph at Abu Dhabi, Bishop Paul Hinder released his new Pastoral Letter, addressed to all the faithful of the Vicariates of Northern and Southern Arabia. 

      Released on the occasion of the Year of St. Joseph and the Year “Amoris Laetitia Family”, Bishop Paul puts forward his reflections on these themes taking into account the impact of the pandemic on the lives of the faithful of both the Vicariates.

      Highlighting the virtues of St. Joseph described in 'Patris Corde', the Apostolic Letter of Pope Francis published on 8 December 2020, Bishop Paul speaks to us in the letter 'with a father's heart'.

      The Bishop invites us to "Go to Joseph" whom God entrusted to take care of the Holy Family and to follow his example in our lives too by silently saying "yes" to the plans of God.
