Prayer For Catholic Parish Pastoral Councils

We are gathered as Parish Pastoral Councillors representing the people of your 'Holy Parish' today, to make decisions with our Parish Priest, from the powerful direction God gives to us. 

The advisory decisions made will need to benefits to our Parish and all our parishioners and Priests in the eyes of our Lord God. We ask that each one of us, give reasonable time to listen, with dignity, compassion and harmony of others, so that we can be guided by the main points of interest shared in conversation, as we find was to before reaching our decisions.

We ask Lord God, to make each one of us as his sheep as we follow our shepherd into a new paddock of fresh grass, giving the strength and courage to fulfill our duties.

In hope, we ask that you show us the right pathway, as we consider each item of importance for moving our Parish community from here.

Amen
