The Plenary Council is set to consider "How might parishes better become local centres for the formation and animation of missionary disciples?" Prudence suggests that you WAIT until the Council has discerned how this might best be achieved.

Covid, Bushfires, Flood, Mouse Plague, Earthquake, Violent demonstrations in our City, too much! Now this shock! With lockdown many Catholics will be unaware of these proposals, please pause until Churches are open for discussions.

"Given this will affect the faithful in a massive way, please reconsider and let us all be a part of this process. ...."

"........ I respectfully urge a hold on any action......."

Wait until after the plenary council is finished and we have time to consider it’s findings

"Priests and parishioners are not happy about the proposal of the Archbishop. ...."

"Allow worshippers to develop a relationship with one parish priest and to build community in one parish...."

"..... kindly lead us not into this RE-SET. Please maintain the STATUS QUO. Thank you in advance."

"I strongly disagree in making any decision before the majority of parishes are back to normal after the COVID 19 pandemic. ..... I urge you to reconsider. Please. God bless you and all priests at this distressing time."

Please open confession to all of us Catholics in our diocese. ...""

Do not agree to this new suggestion

Do not agree to this restructure

"Mega parishes proposed, but any commensurate plans for smaller groups (eg Small Christian Communities) to 'humanise' them? ..... And why now, in the middle of lockdown?"

I believe it will take away our personal relationship with the Parish Priest and the parish community.

Should this occur parishoners may be unable to attend daily Mass and other sacraments.
