Three Years of Parish Ministry: Stats

As of today I have completed three years in my assignment here in the parish. The triennium is a standard unit of obedience for us, and indeed, I am beginning my transition into my next big thing.

Here are my 'stats' after three years in the parish:

Baptisms: 50

Marriages witnessed: 25

Funerals: 68


I don't know what it means, if anything, but it's interesting to note to the congruence between the baptisms and the weddings (since weddings count for two persons.)

Unfortunately, the Church Militant has decreased by 18 under my watch, or about 26%. (baptisms less funerals)

Post a Comment

Faithful, or even just thoughtful criticisms are always welcome. Uninformed rudeness to other posters or to the Lord and His Church is not.

I also reserve the right to reject comments promoting things like private revelations and fringe points of view, if it seems to me like they are being presented in a misleading way.

If you raise a disagreement with something I say but I do not respond, please do not feel slighted or insulted, or imagine that this automatically means I disagree or agree with you. It's just that I don't find the comment box to be a constructive medium for certain forms of debate.
