<![CDATA[The phenomenon of global migration presents social, cultural, and pastoral challenges that call the Church to live out synodality as communio, participation, and mission. This article aims to analyze how a synodal Church can become a common home for migrants and sojourners through an exploration of theological foundations, an ecclesiological understanding, and the formulation of an integrative pastoral model. This study employs a qualitative theological approach through an analysis of Church documents, particularly the encyclical Sollicitudo Rei Socialis (1997), the document For a Synodal Church: Communion, Participation, Mission (2024), as well as a range of contemporary pastoral literature on migration. The findings reveal three main points: first, synodality requires the Church to cultivate a spirituality of listening and journeying together rooted in human dignity; second, the Church is called to strengthen dialogical pastoral forms that correspond with the magisterium’s teaching on solidarity and universal fraternity; third, a transformative pastoral approach is needed to empower migrants as subjects of mission, without neglecting ecclesiological principles. The discussion highlights the need for an integrative pastoral model encompassing processes of listening, discerning, acting, empowering, and building networks as an expression of the Church’s synodal identity. This article concludes that a synodal ecclesiology enriches the Church’s ministry to migrants while renewing its missionary character through hospitality, solidarity, and the participation of the entire People of God.]]>
