Collation of Responses
During the following two weeks our responses will be collated into a parish report. Each parish is to appoint two delegates to co-ordinate this task and then to be present at a meeting with the bishop (see below). I have approached our two representatives on the Deanery Pastoral Council to fulfil this task. I think we will need further help to collate the responses (volunteers welcome)
