Annual General Meeting (AGM)
The Good Shepherd Parish, Sunday 02 October 2022
 

The COVID pandemic limited how we could meet in person for the AGM, for parish elections, and as we all know, even for in-person Masses. We are now able to attend Mass in person, and to conduct meetings at the parish in person. However, given your Pastoral Council needs time to prepare for the AGM, it was decided last evening that we would hold the AGM on Sunday 02 October 2022.
At the end of June, your Pastoral Council will be reviewing the parish report of the Synodal Process, along with the 2020 Flourishing Congregations Survey with a view to proposing a strategic plan for the parish. Both reports will soon be posted to our parish website for all parishioners to read/review.
Finally, we will be holding Parish Council elections on the weekend of 01/02 October 2022. While these elections are normally held in late Spring, again COVID precluded us from following the timelines as prescribed in ourparish council Constitution and By-Laws. Please consider offering your name to serve on pastoral council.
Therewill be more details in the bulletin regarding how you can participate.
Thank you from the members of your Pastoral Council for your support and for your understanding with these delays of these very important parish events.
