Dear Parishioners,

Called to Bear Fruit

Below you finds details of an important initiative from our diocese. I encourage you to take part.

Help Shape the Future of Our Archdiocese

The Archbishop invites you to play a vital role in shaping the future of our Archdiocese. In today’s pastoral letter, he

encourages everyone to reflect on the themes in the Called to Bear Fruit booklet and participate in small group

discussions over the coming weeks. Here’s how you can get involved:

• Form a group: Gather 4–12 people.

• Choose your schedule: Discuss all six themes across six sessions or combine them into fewer meetings—

whatever works best for you.

• Share your insights: Submit your group’s reflections via our online form or as a typed hard copy.

The more people who take part, the richer our understanding of the needs of our archdiocese will be. Let’s work

together to shape our future! Thank you for your involvement.

Fr Behr
