Cardinal Juan José Omella, the Archbishop of Barcelona and president of the Spanish Bishops’ Conference, played a proactive role by seeking clarification from the Vatican about the purpose of the meeting.
Bishop García shared that the Vatican has confirmed that the focus will be on addressing issues related to seminaries.
