FAMILY OF PARISHES Earlier this week, it was formally announced that our Family of Parishes, including St. Mary’s in West Lorne, St. Helen’s in Wallacetown, Our Lady of Sorrows in Aylmer, St. Anne’s and Holy Angels’ in St. Thomas, will be activated on July 1, 2019. The model of Family of Parishes is fairly new to us in the Diocese of London. We have been working with, and learning from other Dioceses that have similar models of parish organization. Our goal is to ensure that the transition over the next six months is as smooth as possible. Families of Parishes will create the stability needed that will allow our parishes to spread the Good News of Jesus Christ and to form intentional disciples. This is our goal; this is the mission of the Church. The transition will lead us to focus on this mission. Nothing will change until July. Realizing, though, that interim work will be needed to prepare for implementation, we will keep you informed about any changes needed in order to work together as a Family of Parishes. We will be looking for your input on some of these changes in due course. Like all families that grow and change, there will be bumps, bruises, and blessings on the way. Let us pray to the Holy Spirit and to our patron saints for the success of this endeavour.
The first meeting for Confirmation Preparation will take place on February 27th, 2019 at St. Anne's Church, 7pm . Subsequent meetings: March 2, April 6, April 27, May 4, 2019
