The Parish of St.
Brigid's is a family for all. The
Liturgy and prayer, the many programs and initiatives of the parish
are guided by the Parish Pastoral Plan. This Strategic Plan was drawn up originally in 2003 to guide our parish
until 2007. It is continually reviewed, assessed and added to.
The Goal of the Parish pastoral Plan is expressed in our Mission
Statement: |
|
To achieve this goal as
a parish
family, we have focused on seven key elements. We want St. Brigid's to be a parish
where:
- prayer
and liturgical celebration are central to our lives;
- parish
life is enriched by the involvement of all;
- young
people are supported and involved in parish life;
- cultural
richness is celebrated in building a united community;
- we
act to bring justice in our local community and beyond;
- our
faith journey is enhanced by life long learning;
- there
is effective stewardship of our resources.
Each of these elements is achieved through a number of particular
strategies, activities or programs. Some are recurring each year such as the annual budget or the
catechetical program in our government schools. Others have a more particular focus such as the providing of
housing to a refugee family.
