“So Important”
Grateful for the team for taking on great responsibility and progressing our response to the synod experience. It is now time to engage with our present situation and develop the parish council, the ministries needed, and a window to develop the liturgy and life of the church.
Those who are already committed are in danger of taking on too greater burden, tasks that are difficult and are put under too much pressure. The work that they do is so important we are truly grateful, and our gratitude is best expressed by working together to the best of our abilities.
I am trying to place myself on a learning curve; my role as parish priest is to keep our parish functioning….. paying our bills. But above all to focus upon the challenge for us to grow as communities of faith, to bear witness to the good news of God’s salvation in a world that is challenged by many dark forces.
