Summer months begin with Faith In Our Future Implementation, New Clergy Assignments

Today, the Implementation Commission for the diocesan Faith in Our Future finished a two day retreat, where commission members, project managers and diocesan recorders reflected on and responded to the cohort reports after this first year of implementing Bishop David M. O’Connell, C.M.’s decisions. The next step for Faith in Our Future is to send commission recommendations back to the cohorts as collaboration as parish planning continues.
