Hello everyoneI think I have posted about this on a previous occasion but I am going to post about it again. I work in an Anglicanparish in Ontario - this diocese has decided that closures need to take place. Too many parishes not enoughparishioners or money. I worked for two other parishes that were slated for closure and quite honestly I had hopedto never go through this again after the second one... but here we are again. Now yesterday my boss the priestadvised that our money problems have not improved and we can't keep going on down this road so closureis most likely our only option. We did meet with two other parishes originally they had thought parishes wouldactually merge but I am not sure that is going to happen now... and so I will be out of work again for the third time.Every other time I have been able to find work again and I belong to the RCCO and I can always get placedon the sub list... not sure how much sub work there would be... I am going to contact a couple of them toput out feelers in this direction... but I am pretty sure by January I will be unemployed... We think thisChristmas will be our last parish Christmas... Anyone have any advice some thoughts?? I would appreciate it very much if some prayers would be offered...
Feeling disappointed and dejected and quite honestly depressed... How many times do I have to go throughthis? I feel as if enough is enough already!!! I didn't want to give the church name...
