SynodThe Second Pastoral Synod of the Archdiocese of Kraków degenerates into a 'rainbow event'. It opened in March 2026 under the leadership of Cardinal Grzegorz Ryś, and the first 56-page report was produced on 19 June.
A Synodal Day of Recollection has been scheduled for 10 October 2026, and the next plenary session is planned for 12–13 February 2027.
Cardinal Ryś was already known for his pro-homosexual tendencies when Leo XIV promoted him Archbishop of Kraków in November 2025.
At the plenary session of the Kraków Synod in June 2026, Cardinal Ryś addressed the issue of homosexuality directly: 'Sexual orientation does not exclude anyone from the Church.'
The 56-page synodal report summarises proposals emerging from local consultations.
On page 34, under the heading 'Radical change of language towards LGBT+', the report calls for 'safe pastoral havens'. It demands an end to portraying practicing homosexuals as a threat and calls for 'open, honest dialogue with contemporary knowledge about the human person', 'true respect for human conscience' and 'the dignity of the person always standing above excluding structures and harmful stereotypes'.
Most strikingly, the report proposes creating these "safe spaces", modelling them on Wiara i Tęcza ("Faith and Rainbow"). This homosex organisation states that its goal is "full acceptance of LGBT+ people in churches and society".
The organisation says that homosexuals should be accepted 'also with their sexuality' and declares that 'every sexual orientation [including paedophilia?] and gender identity is a gift from God' and compatible with faith.
