That will only half work and only if you have youthful priests. It will be normalising the unessential need for the sacraments and literal presence of christ. Very disappointing

I think more discussion and prayer should be part of this process

"...It appears there has been little thought put into such a huge move from each community being a separate Parish. Such a model could work very successfully if the laity had been involved....."

could the archbishop wait for more consultation before this decision

This decision seems very sudden, especially during the difficult times we are all dealing with at the moment. More consultation please - when we can again gather.

I do not support the changes that they are trying to Implement.

Please put a hold on this restructure until you have the ability to consult with parishioners.

"206 Melbourne Parishes down to 60 Missions is not Evangelising the Faith......."

Import that we get a chance to discuss the proposal, reflect and pray on this, as a parish community, which we are currently not able to do.

We love our parish 😇🙏❤️

".... In these unprecedented times, we need more stability, a more, not less, present parish priest, more readily available Sacraments, more daily Mass … God bless :) "

"...... Please don’t take away the things that have more meaning to us in these tough days. Thank you"

".....it’s quite upsetting please reconsider all this faithfully ...."
