About the sinoditalgutiim

Don’t mix up the sinoditalgutiim with the sinoditiim.

sinoditalgutiim

A team of diverse people I asked to help me to write an ecumenical report to be submitted to the sinoditiim in March 2022.

talgu

A meeting of a group of volunteers who work together for a communal project during a limited time.

I formed[1] the sinoditiim in September 2021 after having myself been appointed as the Synodal Contact Person for Estonia by the Bishop. The Bishop then confirmed us as a team during the diocesan opening mass of the Synod on October 17th.

The sinoditalgutiim was also formed by me, but as a private initiative. I informed the Bishop about my plans, but acted independently without asking his opinion or approval. I am currently the only one who knows all members of this team. They will eventually get to know each other during our meetings. I maintain a separate page with rules for this team.

To form a team, in apostolic governance, means that the team leader chooses and appoints members personally one by one. See also About synodal teamwork.
