Future of Parish Life

This week we discuss with former University of Sydney chaplain Fr Paul Rowse OP, who has now settled into parish life in Melbourne. We discuss the trends of where faithful are flocking for Mass on Sundays and weekdays for that matter. 

There is undoubtedly a decline and consolidation of parishes, and increase in 'parish hopping' along with people travelling long distances that has happened over the past decade, and we look deeper into this trends. Fr Paul leaves us with some very serious practical tools to take action in growing our parish life and draw more people to your local community.
