DIOCESE OF KERRY: Tomorrow’s Parish? – Have your say!
The Diocese of Kerry invites you to share your thoughts on the future of parishes. Through a series of one-night meetings being held in different venues throughout the diocese, all are invited to share how they imagine the parish of tomorrow can thrive, given the changing society in which we live. As the number of priests in parish ministry decrease, the diocese faces many challenges: how will funerals be celebrated in the future, who will support children presenting for First Holy Communion, who will offer pastoral care and support to the sick and the housebound over the coming years, will churches close and who will support couples wishing to marry in Church? Check out the upcoming meetings on www.dioceseofkerry.ie. The meeting for this area will be held on Thursday 2nd April.
