Dear Parishioners,

First of all, I want to personally thank you for your willingness to participate in the All Things New initiative through the Disciple Maker Index survey, which concluded on April 4.  As I mentioned earlier, a high response rate reflects well on our parish, and with over 900 responses, I am very proud of the investment of our parishioners in the life and future of our parish.  Of course, we don’t know yet how All Things New will impact us, but the responses on the DMI will help us as a parish work towards a greater vibrancy and discipleship.  So thank you!

And since everyone showed their skill at filling out surveys, the folks at ATN have given us another opportunity to do so!  Beginning today, there is a new survey specifically to evaluate the needs of Catholic education and formation.  This survey is designed to hear from anyone, including former and prospective parents, donors, volunteers, teachers, and parish community members within the Archdiocese, regardless of whether they currently have children enrolled in a Catholic school or PSR program.  Filling out the survey will allow you to anonymously share your thoughts about Catholic education, which provides important input into the All Things New strategic planning process.  The survey doesn’t focus on a specific school or parish, but will be the first step in gathering more information and feedback, and there will be more opportunities for more focused input and feedback in the future. 

The survey can be taken online here and will close on May 2, 2022.

Thank you for your input and investment in our parish community and all our efforts to provide solid Catholic education and formation to the young people of our parish!

In Christ,

Fr. Grosch
