The clean up is an extension of the Cluster Pastoral Plan of Cluster 33 in the Archdiocese of Philadelphia. The Cluster Pastoral Plan was approved in January of 1998. One of the goals of the plan was to renew the presence of Catholic Social Services in Cluster 33. Cluster Pastoral Planning is a prayerful reflective grassroots process in which priests and parishioners work together to maintain the vitality of the Church in their neighborhoods. Cluster 33 is made up of 11 parishes.
