The Fabrique
The Fabrique is an ecclesiastical corporation whose object is to acquire, possess, hold, and administer property for the practice of the Roman Catholic religion in the parish for which it is constituted (c.F-1: Act respecting Fabriques, Section 13). The Fabrique operates in accordance with the Act and diocesan policies and guidelines. The wardens are elected by parishioners; while the chairperson is appointed by the Bishop.
To accomplish its role, it is incumbent upon a Fabrique to:
- Know and understand the pastoral orientation and needs of the parish;
- Elaborate financial and administrative plans and controls that will assist the realization of parish pastoral priorities as well as the essential administrative and maintenance requirements;
- Collaborate and co-operate with the PPC and the Pastor (or Mandated Pastoral Team);
- Work in communion with the Archbishop of Gatineau-Hull.
