Kerry Diocese commissions new pastoral leaders

Bishop Ray Browne commissioned 25 people as pastoral leaders in St Mary’s Cathedral, on Sunday.
This new ministry in the Diocese of Kerry involves coordinating and supporting pastoral ministry in parishes and pastoral areas.
The volunteer pastoral leaders will work with clergy, parish secretaries, and existing parish ministers. Their commission will last for three years.
The newly commissioned leaders completed a two-year formation programme accredited by Mary Immaculate College, Limerick, developing both their faith and relevant skills.
They may undertake roles traditionally held by priests, such as bringing communion to the housebound or supporting schools in sacramental preparation.
“The future Church will be different, not better or worse,” said Bishop Browne.
