The application process for Parish Development Grants in 2019 has begun, with initial 'intent to apply' applications due by the end of April 5th 2019.
The overall purpose of Parish Development grants is to assist parishes in the Diocese as they develop, with God’s help, into healthier, more faithful, and more effective communities of faith. We are interested, therefore, in making grants to parishes that have a vision for their own development and want the Diocese’s assistance in moving toward the vision.
This will be the fourth year of this grant process. In 2019, six parishes who made successful applications are using Parish Development Grants to help move forward with their vision of parish development, funding new initiatives and expanding existing ministries.
Information about the Parish Development Grants application process is available on the Parish Development Grants page.
The 'Intent to Apply' form can be downloaded from this link.
