We invite you to be part of this important conversation.

Speaking at the launch of the book African Synodal Theology: A Tall Tree is as Strong as its Roots, held at Hekima University College on 18th March, 2026, Bishop Rodrigo Mejía Saldarriaga, SJ, offered a candid and spontaneous reflection on the state of synodality in Africa, warning that it risks becoming a mere “event” rather than a transformative practice.

Bishop Rodrigo, the Vicar Apostolic Emeritus of Soddo, Ethiopia, and a founding member of Hekima University College, drew a sharp distinction between the success of African celebrations and the necessity of structural change in the church.
