DIOCESAN ASSEMBLY
WHAT IS DIOCESAN ASSEMBLY?
Our Diocesan Assembly, while part of our larger continuing journey, will culminate in the creation of a five-year Diocesan Pastoral Plan, giving us a vision for the future of our Diocese. The Diocesan Synodal Team, on behalf of Bishop George, wholeheartedly encourages each of you to engage in this new conversation and join together as we discern the call of the Holy Spirit for the future of our Diocese.
DIOCESAN ASSEMBLY PRAYER
Loving and faithful God,
As we walk along the road of our lives, help us to recognize that You are with us.
Stay close to us. Open our hearts when we hear Your Word.
In the blessing and breaking of the bread and of our lives together, help us to recognize You and know that You are near.
Fill us with Your Spirit and joy, so we may go and share Your Good News.
Send Your blessing on all the people of our Diocese as we prepare for our Assembly in August.
May Your Spirit of wisdom inspire and guide all our conversations and gatherings.
May Your Spirit of living communion unite us more closely in our parishes and diocese.
May our walking together be fruitful and be a sign of presence in our world.
Amen.
Our Lady of the Way, Pray for us.
