THE PARISH AND ITS SENIOR PARISHIONERS
THE PARISH AND ITS TEENAGE PARISHIONERS
In the last weekend’s Guide there was a report on behalf of the Parish Pastoral Council and its concern about our Parish’s presence to our senior parishioners. IF YOU ARE A SENIOR PARISHIONER AND MISSED LAST WEEKEND’S GUIDE, PLEASE PHONE THE PARISH CENTER (773-539-7510) AND A COPY OF THIS ARTICLE WILL BE SENT TO YOU. Based on this article, begin your own reflections.
Next weekend, we will move to the other Parish Pastoral Council discussion: outreach to our teenage parishioners.
These are significant issues which underscore the importance of the work of the Parish Pastoral Council in serving and forming the vision of our Parish.
