\n<\/strong>The process is one of discernment and involves naming, praying, and reflecting. It does not involve discussing. The detailed programme is here<\/a>. The discernment is designed to occur within the Mass.<\/p>\n
\n<\/strong>So our communities can reflect deeply before we begin the next step of the transition, which is making some decisions around pastoral care, administration, and more, for the new Parish.<\/p>\n
\n<\/strong>The discernment occurs over 10 weeks, taking a pause in week 9 for the Pastoral Area Sacrament of Confirmation.<\/p>\n
\n<\/strong>A subgroup, representing our four church communities, is creating a template to use at all Masses in the Pastoral Area each week. The subgroup is: Tim Gordon, Maria Noonan, Le Bernadette Faifua, Karen Holland, Joy Andersen, Lesley Hooper, Deirdre Hanlon.<\/p>\n
\n<\/strong>We have 22 leaders assigned to Mass Communities. As much as possible, these are mixed teams from different Church communities. Of course, we also have our presiders as a key part of the process.<\/p>\n![\"line\"](\"https:\/\/wellingtonsouthcatholic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/line-300x3.jpg\")
