| Reconfiguration & Prioritization |
| Aligning to the need to adjust to the demands of the time, Oceania Province joined the world wide move to reconfiguration and prioritization of ministries. With the steady decline both in numbers and new entrants, our capacity to respond effectively and speedily to our mission had to be reevaluated. The organizational structure of the Province was therefore changed to reflect the thinking behind the reconfiguration. The Region is changed to Sector. This move allows the Provincial to lead the Province more effectively according to its mission. The Regional Superior is changed to Provincial Delegate or Sector Delegate. His main function is to represent the Provincial in the Sector. All these happened from 2018. What is ongoing is the prioritization of our ministries. That means we will continue to make hard decisions to let go of some communities and ministries in order to consolidate other communities and ministries according to Marist charism and criteria of missions. |
