A little more than one year on from the launch of the Catholic Archdiocese of Perth’s plan aimed at bringing the community together, the task of strengthening and revitalising parishes with a sense of empowering passion is well underway, according to Father Nino Vinciguerra. By Natashya Fernandez.

A little more than one year on from the launch of what is the biggest renewal for the Archdiocese of Perth in many years, a stream of results are coming to the surface.

The first of many prospective new fruits of the Archdiocesan Plan is starting to appear with the implementation phase now well underway.

A new plan with the central message to walk faithfully in the footsteps of the Good Shepherd, has now been released by Archbishop Timothy Costelloe.

Administrative support has increased for parishes across Perth with the release of updated Parish Guidelines.

The need to walk faithfully in the footsteps of the Good Shepherd was the central message Perth Archbishop Timothy Costelloe this week reinforced, as he paid thanks to those who have participated and contributed to the development of the new Archdiocesan Plan.

We are delighted to report that there was a tremendous response to the Consultation Phase, officially launched by Archbishop Costelloe SDB in September of 2015.

More than 175 priests, deacons and seminarians from across the Archdiocese last month gathered at Aquinas College for the annual Clergy Mass and Dinner.

Archbishop Timothy Costelloe has this week welcomed the launch of the new Archdiocesan website which was activated on Tuesday this week.
