Pastoral Plan of the Archdiocese of Toronto
|
The Catholic Archdiocese of Toronto, under the spiritual leadership of Cardinal Thomas Collins, has released its pastoral plan, providing a spiritual roadmap that will help chart the course for 225 parishes and 1.8 million Catholics throughout the Greater Toronto Area for years to come.
|
 |
What is a Pastoral Plan and why do we need one?
"A pastoral plan serves as a roadmap for our journey as a Catholic Christian community, identifying key priorities and goals on the path ahead. It is rooted in prayerful reflection upon the Bible and our living tradition of faith. It also involves a thorough, accurate and honest assessment of our current pastoral situation, both the challenges and the opportunities before us. . . It is always wise to step back and consider what our key priorities as an archdiocese should be at this time, so that we can more effectively work together, and focus our efforts, and have a way of assessing how we are doing. That is what a pastoral plan allows us to do; it also helps us both to discover the tools we need to fulfill our mission, and to use our resources more wisely." - Cardinal Collins
