This past Tuesday, a meeting of the CDS finance council, interim pastoral council, and parish Task Force was held. At this meeting, we discussed the work of the Task Force in evaluating all our buildings, and reviewed the results of their analysis. We also began the discussion of formulating a plan for the future of our parish. We need you to be part of that plan, too! Next week, we’ll hold two parish assemblies, and we’d like to invite you to attend one of these meetings:
- May 12, at 6:15pm, at St Susanna Church (following the 5pm Ascension Vigil Mass)
- May 13, at 1:15pm, at St Bernadette Church (following the noon Ascension Mass)
At these assemblies, we’ll review the work of the Task Force, discuss our parish’s current situation, present a tentative proposal on how we might consider proceeding, and listen to your input and recommendations.
We also plan to record a video of one of these assemblies and place it on our website for you to watch, should you be unable to attend one of the assemblies in person. We will also offer opportunities for you to respond via the website, so that all who attend the assemblies in person or virtually will be able to have their perspectives heard.
We hope to see you at one of our parish assemblies next week!
Please keep Christ the Divine Shepherd Parish in your prayers, as together we continue discerning our future as a Catholic community for Monroeville and Penn Hills!
