Bishop Deenihan and Fr Derek Darby met with priests and chairpersons from Parish Pastoral Assemblies in the Trim area recently. Bishop Deenihan expressed his deep appreciation for the commitment and time given by members of Pastoral Assemblies to their parishes. He outlined some of the opportunities emerging across the Diocese and invited assemblies to begin exploring ways they can work more collaboratively with their neighbouring parishes, share resources, and support ongoing faith formation and evangelisation to ensure the sacramental life of parishes can be supported and developed as we plan for ahead for the future.
Athboy Parish Pastoral Assembly had a follow up meeting this week and are preparing a survey which will be circulated later this month.
