ST. ANTHONY PARISH COHASSET, MA

Dear Parishioners,

In January 2011 Cardinal Sean O’Malley established an

Archdiocesan Pastoral Planning Commission. The group was

comprised of a bishop, pastors, deacons, religious, lay ecclesial

ministers and members of parish staffs, school leaders and

parishioners with families. The work of the commission was to

develop a recommendation for a pastoral plan for the

Archdiocese so that every Catholic might embrace the new

evangelization echoing the teaching of Saint John Paul II and

Pope Benedict XVI. The shortage of priests, and the declining

number of people attending Sunday Masses led to the need for

pastoral planning in the Archdiocese. The Pastoral Plan

recommended by the Planning Committee is entitled Disciples in

Mission. “To summarize the 25 page document, the parishes in

the Archdiocese were divided into seven phases with two or three

parishes in each phase forming a collaborative. No parish church

will be closed in the new plan, no parish will cease to exist, each

parish will retain its own identity, retain its own Finance

Committee but share a single administration, and share Parish

Pastoral Council with the other parish(es) within the

collaborative. To date there have been six phases of

Collaboratives operating. St. Anthony Parish has been placed in

Phase Seven in a collaborative with St. Mary Parish in Hull. The

collaborative will begin on June 1, 2019. I mention this at this

time, since the names of the parishes in Phase Seven will be

announced in The Pilot next week. Last Thursday was the date on

which letters of resignation had to be sent to Cardinal Sean, so

Father Mark Derrane in Hull and I had to send our letters of

resignation. This opens the way so that any priest interested in

pastoring the new collaborative can become aware of the

opening. I think the name of the Pastor is made known sometime

in January, and the effective date of the assignment is June 1st.

The new collaborative will have a Pastor, possibly a Parochial

Vicar (the old “curate”) Pastoral Associate (lay or religious)

Business manager, Youth Minister and Religious Education

leaders. The Commission recommended that religious and laity,

as well as clergy be formally involved in the assignment process

of pastors, and it is hoped that the Priest Personnel Board will

have an open meeting to allow the parishioners to offer their

suggestions and recommendations, without naming a specific

person. I will keep you posted on the process of the Collaborative

as time goes on. Sincerely,

Fr John R. Mulvehill

From the Deacon’s Bench

A plant without water cannot stay alive and

bear fruit. Nor can faith, unless it drinks

deeply of the memory of all that the Lord has

done for us.
