In April 2021, Archbishop Dermot Farrell established a Task Force called Building Hope. The Task Force was asked to assess the needs of the people of the Archdiocese of Dublin and to work to support parish communities as they undertake a radical renewal, looking to the future with creativity.

Parish Pastoral Plan

Following the launch of the Building Hope Pastoral Strategic Planning Resource 2025–2027, we invited parishioners to have a voice and a say in how we move forward in our parish. In early 2025 we held our first parish gathering to discuss what is working well in our parish, what needs development, and what our immediate priorities are. Following the feedback we received from the parish gathering, we are delighted to launch our new Pastoral Plan for Holy Trinity Parish.

Next Step: Parish Partnership Pastoral Plan

The next step in our Building Hope journey is for the five parishes in our Parish Partnership (Ayrfield, Donaghmede, Edenmore, Grange Park, Raheny) to create a combined Parish Partnership Pastoral Plan, taking into account the individual Pastoral Plans prepared by each parish.

To this end, parishioners are invited to attend a meeting in St. Monica’s Church Edenmore at 7pm on Thursday 27th November, where all five parishes will be represented.
