The Diocese established cluster groups to provide input/suggestions on the future of the Catholic Community which it oversees. This page is provided to share information regarding clustering of the Dover/Barrington Catholic Community, and encourages your input, thoughts and suggestions to this cluster planning group (to which St. Mary Parish belongs).   The Diocese has established Task Force Merger representatives at each parish for this endeavor. It's first meeting was held on September 21st - there is a link below to the minutes of the first meeting.

Please contact Fr. Fritz (domcaeruleus@comcast.net), the Task Force (smtaskmerger@comcast.net) or drop a note at the rectory or into the collection basket at Mass to offer your suggestions. The following links provide information on the Parish and St. Mary facilities to assist in providing your thoughts and suggestions to our points of contact. Other links will open documents prepared by the Dover/Barrington Cluster Task Force. Dates in parentheses are the dates the links were placed on the website:
