As (I think) the first person to post a prayer point in the Connect09 forum, can I ask for your prayers for those of us who are preparing the way. 
I am probably going to be in the group (at my work parish) which is starting to do our research.  We have ideas about the nature of the parish, but we need to actually check the facts.  Just who does live in our parish, what languages do they speak, how can we best reach them?  All vitally important things to know.
Please pray for our planning group, and for all the other planning groups in all the other parishes, that we will work well together, that the data we need will be easily available and that once it is obtained, it will help us to reach our community.
