We, the members of the Parish Pastoral Council

of Our Lady of the Holy Rosary of Fatima, 

believe and pledge ourselves to work in a collaborative

ministry, the priests, religious  and people striving together in the Mission

 of the Church. Having nourished ourselves with Word and Eucharist,

 and having encountered Jesus in the Sacraments, we are ready

 to actively take part in the evangelisation of our neighbourhood,

and of our society.

 We believe that the proclamation of God's word and the witness

 of a Christian life are vital, especially to young people.

We believe that we are mandated by Jesus to reach out and welcome

 people  of different cultures and traditions.

We believe that it is our task to integrate new members into our

faith community,especially through the Sacraments of Initiation.

We believe that we are at the service of the faith community,

that we must listen in order to discern their needs, in order to

respond in an effective way.

We believe that we must constantly strive to renew ourselves

in the reading of scripture, personal prayer and in our common worship,

 that we equip ourselves to serve the faith community by educating

ourselves in the most effective ways of active

listening and working together as a group.
