Commission to plan pastoral work among the Russian speakers

Father David defined three initial objectives for the commission:

1. To describe the actual situation in our communities and in the country so that we might understand who are the Russian speaking Christians in our communities and in the country.
2. To describe the pastoral work that we already do among the Russian speaking Christian population and to plan what might be done for the Russian speaking Christians in the future.
3. To deepen our understanding and consciousness with regard to the inalienable link between Hebrew and Russian speakers within the Vicariate.

The first meeting of the commission took place in an atmosphere of friendliness and interest. In the first meeting, the dates for the other meetings for the rest of the year were defined. We wish the commission much success in its work.
