Program

  1. Welcome
  2. Prayer and reflection

  4. Overview of current financial structures
  5. The Archbishop’s vision for the Melbourne Archdiocese: presentation of the ‘Take the Way of the Gospel’ framework
  6. Group reflection on the themes of parish vibrancy, vitality and viability
  7. Questions and answers: having heard all this, how can we respond to this vision?
