New PPC for Parishes of ‘Kilbride and Barndarrig’ and Wicklow

Following consultation with the Parish Pastoral Councils for the parishes of “Kilbride and Barndarrig” and Wicklow Parish, it has been agreed that One Parish Pastoral Council be formed for both parishes.  The Parish Pastoral Council is tasked with advising on the pastoral planning for a parish and its future development. I would like to express my thanks to all the members of the two Parish Pastoral Councils for all their work over the last number of years. The new development is a good step towards sharing our resources and skills. Both parishes will benefit from this development. I am also delighted that many of the members of the two councils have opted to be part of the new Council. I also ask your prayers for all the members so that together we can face the future and its challenges.
