Our Parish Pastoral Council (PPC)

This body of parishioners will meet regularly to discern, discuss and plan the pastoral life of the parish with the parish priest.

It will operate from a constitution approved by Bishop John Cunningham.

It's term of office is concurrent with the appointment of Fr Jim Hayes as Parish Priest.

The meetings are always announced in the weekly bulletin and items for discussion may be suggested to Father.

They should normally be given in writing or email and signed and dated at least a week before the scheduled meeting.

We encourage all parishioners to participate.

The PPC discusses, reflects upon and discerns those areas that are common to us all.

Any personal or individual item should be brought to our parish priest privately.

The next meeting takes place in the Parish Hall on Wednesday 21st March 2012.

From 7pm till 9pm.

All parishioners are welcome to attend.
