Disciple Maker Index Survey Opens this Week! Please Read and Help!

The Disciple Maker Index survey for Our Family Parish officially opens this week!

As part of the Beacons of Light process, all parishioners of Our Parish Family are invited to participate in a survey about discipleship conducted by the Catholic Leadership Institute (CLI), the organization helping us navigate through the phases of Beacons of Light.

This survey will only be available from January 21st to February 27th and will ask you to reflect on your own spiritual growth, enabling you to provide feedback on what efforts the parish is doing to help you grow. All responses will be confidential, and the parish will only receive information about the community as whole.

Please go to the following link to complete the survey for your church:

Holy Trinity -- https://portal.catholicleaders.org/dmi/survey/y85063
St. Ann -- https://portal.catholicleaders.org/d/ypptb3
St. Louis -- https://portal.catholicleaders.org/d/y9y7ky
St. Philomena -- https://portal.catholicleaders.org/d/y9xy73

If you prefer a paper copy: The survey is being distributed through Flocknote to our parishioners for whom we have an email address. While the preferred method of survey response is online, the Parish Office can provide a hardcopy upon request if you do not have access to a computer. To submit the completed paper survey, please drop off completed paper survey to the office by survey closing date, February 27, 2023.

It takes 10 to15 minutes to complete the survey, and we encourage each person to fill out the survey when they receive it. The results will be very helpful to Our Family Parish Council, the staff, our many volunteers, and me as we seek ways to best support everyone in their discipleship journey. We will receive the results this summer, at which time we will share what we have learned with the entire parish.

Thank you for helping with this important project!
God bless,

Father Thomas H. McCarthy
