Diocese of Buffalo - A light unto my path…guiding us through 2026
To revive parish life, we embraced input from multiple sources including the Movement to Restore Trust, as well as Vicariate listening sessions. Additional feedback on our diocese was gathered through the 2022 Synod sessions: Listening in Love and Hope, Conversation About the Church. The Road to Renewal program that began in 2020 continues to pursue its visionary effort to reorganize our churches into 36 Families of Parishes.
From this foundational work, I now wish to present a broader action plan entitled--- A Light unto my path...guiding us through 2026. My intention is that this plan will enshrine the Road to Renewal as its first goal.
In the next few bulletins, we will provide updates on Bishop Michael Fisher’s action plan.
