DERRY DIOCESAN PASTORAL PLAN 2018-2021
‘God is Love’ :
Bishop McKeown has announced the publication of
a Diocesan Pastoral Plan for 2018-2021 in the diocese, ‘God is Love’. The Plan is
the result of a two-year programme of work by the Interim Diocesan Pastoral Council,
consisting of 14 men
and women - laity from across the diocese, Religious and clergy. It is a first step
in developing a co-responsible Church at parish and diocesan level, identifying
paths that might lead to solutions to the many challenges we face, including the
practical need to plan for the times when priests will not be present in the way
that they have been up to now. A number of printed copies of the Plan have been
received for the parish and a pdf version of it is also available to view and download
on the diocesan website www.derrydiocese.org . You are invited to read it. The main
work of implementing the Plan will begin after the summer break. Bishop McKeown
asks for your prayers and support, in the knowledge that everything done in faith
and love will bear fruit in God’s own good time.
