How will this affect the day-to-day life of the parish?

There should be no substantial change in the normal operation and administration of any parish. The Pastor will continue to administer the parish as previously, consulting with the parish pastoral council and finance council as currently required. The parish will continue to have a parish pastoral council, finance council, and so on. The parish will remain in communication with and accountable to the Archbishop. The parish will still need to file an annual budget and financial report with the Archdiocese. Permission of the Archbishop will still be needed when administration of parish goods is an act of major importance, exceeding what is considered ordinary administration. The fact of civil incorporation will not change the basic pattern of parish and diocesan life.
