To that effect, I have asked themembers of the council to approach you, our goodparishioners, and ask you to share your own experiencesand growth in your Christian faith and incommunity. Would you kindly, if not too private, reflecton your own spiritual development and communityexperience and to whatever extent you wish, share this withthe council member if approached.
