That should have read PLC-- they used to be PLA, for Administrator but now they are formally titled as Coordinators. :-)

Kitty: Almost all of our rural parishes around here offer a
Saturday<br>evening Mass and at least one Sunday morning mass. Sunday
a.m. is still<br>the preferred time for many parishioners but the
Saturday mass has it's<br>regulars who rarely attend Sunday a.m. Many
families with children find<br>it easier to get to church on Saturday
afternoon than dragging kids out<br>of bed Sunday morning. Also for the
farmers, they don't have to<br>interrupt early morning chores to get
there. And with more and more<br>parishes clustering or sharing the
services of one priest, it is<br>becoming commonplace for one town to
host a Saturday evening mass, the<br>next town over to do an early
Sunday a.m. mass, and another town to do a<br>late Sunday a.m. mass, all
presided over by the same celebrant. With the<br>shortage of active
priests in the US, we are seeing something of a<br>return to the days of
itinerant ministers who come to celebrate the Mass<br>and leave the
actual day to day running

of the parishes in the hands of<br><br>administrators, which is what all
the classwork I am doing is preparing for...work as a Parish Life
Coordinator (PLA).<br><br><br>Melody <br>Hills, IA zone 5<br><br>Work

an absolutely gorgeous day<br>here...temp of 76,

gardening<br>question...how long do you think I should<br>> let all the
dirt settle<br>that we had to dump into the collapsed cistern<br>> last
year before it<br>is safe to assume it won't settle anymore? Couple
of<br>> years? And in<br>the meantime, what do I do with that pile of
dirt to<br>> disguise it a<br>bit?? Obviously we are going to have to
relocate the water<br>> feature<br>that was there...and I've got to get
in back there to rescue the<br>><br>lovely iris, lady's mantle,
huechera, and grasses that are<br>there...any<br>> thoughts on the best
way to divide zebra grass? The<br>root<br><br>masses are<br>> tough and
last year when I tried to divide them using a<br>spade, I didn't<br>>
have much luck at all...okay read that as none!<br>:-)<br>><br>><br>>
