At Mass recently, Fr Luke announced changes to the governance structure of the parishes of St Mary Magdalen, St Mark and Holy Family, Brantham which are being implemented.
A Senior Leadership Team (SLT) has been established and will work alongside Fr Luke to advise and assist in the daily management of the parish. The SLT members have delegated authority and will help as leaders in our parishes. The members of the SLT are [javascript protected email address], [javascript protected email address], [javascript protected email address], [javascript protected email address] and [javascript protected email address]. They can be contacted direct via email for non-urgent parish matters - simply click the relevant name to email them.
To work alongside the SLT, a larger consultative body, to be called the Parish Mission Council (PMC) is to be established. Comprising members drawn from each of the three parish communities, the PMC will help Fr Luke in leading the parish as well as functioning as a consultative body, not unlike a governing body in a school. The PMC will help shape the mission and life of our parishes and, importantly, as a presence in each community, it will also be a point of contact for anyone who would like to raise non-urgent and strategic parish issues for discussion. The PMC members for St Mary Magdalen parish are Michael Long, Martin Pakes, Tracey Snell and Declan Moore with one further appointment pending.
