St Anthony's Parish

PLEASE LET THE PARISH OFFICE KNOW IF YOU ARE LEAVING THE PARISH OR HAVE CHANGED OR ARE CHANGING YOUR ADDRESS, TELEPHONE NUMBERS ETC.  IT IS IMPORTANT THAT WE MAINTAIN AN ACCURATE DATABASE WHICH HELPS OUR PRIESTS, THE PASTORAL AND FINANCE COMMITTEES AND THE OFFICE SERVE US ALL AS SMOOTHLY AND EFFICIENTLY AS POSSIBLE.

EVERY SO OFTEN WE REQUEST PARISHIONERS TO REGISTER WITH THE PARISH. HOWEVER, THIS REQUEST IS OFTEN IGNORED BY SOME PARISHIONERS, EVEN THOSE WHO HAVE CHILDREN IN OUR CATECHETICS PROGRAMMES. WE DO NOT WISH TO PUT PRESSURE ON PARISHIONERS TO REGISTER BUT WE ARE A LARGELY EXPATRIATE PARISH AND AFTER LEAVING BRUSSELS, PARISHIONERS WILL OFTEN GET IN TOUCH TO REQUEST REFERENCES, CERTIFICATES OF GOOD CONDUCT OR CONFIRMATION THAT THEY WERE PRACTISING CATHOLICS ETC. IT IS EITHER DIFFICULT OR SOMETIMES IMPOSSIBLE TO PROVIDE THIS SERVICE WHEN WE DO NOT HAVE PARISHIONER INFORMATION ON OUR DATABASE. WE REQUEST THAT PARISHIONERS BE MINDFUL OF THIS WHEN THEY DECIDE WHETHER OR NOT TO REGISTER. WE REITERATE THAT ALL INFORMATION ON OUR DATABASE IS CONFIDENTIAL AND IS NEVER HANDED OUT WITHOUT PARISHIONERS' CONSENT.

THANK YOU.
