Member of a Parish?
Registration is the official way we join a Parish community.
Many people think that because they attend a particular parish they automatically belong.
Membership requires signing up and formally enrolling yourself in the parish But it is also more than just filling out some forms. Registration is a commitment to a community, a way to be included in the religious, social and ministerial activities of a parish.
Your registration affects the parish in many ways. Census numbers can determine how many priests are assigned to a parish. What benefits and obligations the community has to the Archdiocese, and how many Masses and programs are planned and scheduled.
Registration not only shows you belong, but may be necessary for census benefits, like scheduling sacraments like Infant Baptism and weddings, obtaining sponsor or godparent certificates within or outside the parish, participating in catechetical programs, identification in cases of emergency or accidents, letter of reference to an institution or organization, etc.
Committing to a Parish is much like a commitment to a family, school or community organization. Just like you want the parish to be there to provide Masses, Sacraments, education programs and ministries, the parish needs to be able to count on you to help and assist in their mission; to be an active member.
Registration in the Parish is a statement of faith and confidence in the life and work of our Parish. As parish members, we are all here to help each other on our spiritual journey; we don’t want to do this alone. As much as you need us, we need you too.
Kindly note that all information on the Parish registration is confidential and secured on the Parish software database.
Registration commences on Monday 27th January, 2020 at the Parish Laity Office. Monday to Friday 9:00am – 4:00pm.
The registration is mandatory for all Parishioners from 14 years and above.
