Fourteenth Ordinary General Assembly of the Synod of Bishops

Jeremias Schröder was selected to take part at the synod as one of the elected representatives of the Union Of Superiors General. He reported that the Catholic fraternal orders considered before the synod to give half of their ten seats to the female orders that are not eligible to vote. However, the Unione Superiori Generali finally concluded that it would be not enough if the female orders should get seats of the fraternal orders but that they should get their own seats.^[3][4]
