The April 18 consultation meeting at Holy Family Church in Newark for people representing the nine parishes of the Iron Hill Deanery was an affirmation for the future of the Diocese of Wilmington right from the start.
That’s because the more than 60 Catholics at the session had already attended parish-level consultations on issues for the diocese to address during the next five years. Their arrival at Holy Family on a drizzly Wednesday night underlined their commitment to help build a future for the diocese by sharing their parish discussions with other Catholics from the area.
