The role of the Parish Pastoral Council in parish pastoral planning will be the subject of a full day of workshops for current and prospective parish pastoral council members and their pastors. There will also be fifteen workshops given by experts in parish pastoral council and parish planning from throughout the United States. Each workshop addresses some aspect of this important teaching for the Catholic church in the Archdiocese of Philadelphia and surrounding dioceses including collaboration between urban and suburban parishes, the role of the council members in ongoing planning for the parish, group decision making, training, and recruiting and developing parish leaders.
Registration is open to everyone.
