Parish Family Spirit

• There are 43 Parish community / 66 language groups in SHC Parish.

• PFPN being the Parish vehicle need to play its Primary role as the CORE channel & network reach out to all Catholic families & members in the housings to instill the Parish Family spirit.

The Way Forward

• Over 300 neophytes (Catholic families) are baptized to join SHC Parish almost every year.

• As inclusive Parish PFPN needs to reach out to all neophytes to join a group, ministry or PFPN to start new pastoral journey as a Parish family member.

• New Catholic families moving in your taman.

The Way Forward

• Identify, recruit & train additional zone/ taman coordinators to share out responsibilities.

• Need to train and form more BR leaders.• Any suggestions?? Good concept?/

Pareto's theory The 80-20 Rule

• Observed that 20% of the people owned 80% of the wealth in his country, • "vital few and trivial many”• The 80/20 Rule means that practically in

almost everything a few (20 percent) are vital and many(80 percent) are trivial.

• 20 % of something always are responsible for 80 % of the results.

Pareto's theory The 80-20 Rule

• 80% of PFPN process/ events/ work done comes from 20 % of our zone/taman coordinators.

• Also 80 % of your sales will come from 20 % of your sales staff.

• 20 % of your staff will cause 80 % of your problems, but another 20 % of your staff will provide 80 % of your production. It works both ways.

Take home framework

• Framework on HOW to play our role as Leaders/ members of PFPN/ Parish groups or ministries.

• 6C for 3 PPP in new evangelization for YOF.• Cooperate, Collaborate, Communicate,

Converge and Compliment with and between the PPC to Create unity and integration to address our 3 PPP in this new evangelization in the year of faith and beyond as a BIG Parish Pastoral Family.

Conclusion

• If 20% or > of 43 zones can put in committed effort and action to this HOW framework , Sooner than later PFPN shall be leading & coordinating to address our 3 top PPP with:

• Oneness in Heart, Family & Parish with the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus and becoming a more mature and complete Parish pastorally
