As parish administrator for St. James Parish...

As parish administrator for St. James Parish, my primary responsibility is to help you grow as disciples of Jesus and to equip you to go and make disciples of others which is really the mission statement of our parish community.  I am excited to share with you that our parish is going to participate in a parish survey conducted by Catholic Leadership Institute underwritten by the Lilly Foundation.  The Index (DMI) Survey will take place in all the parishes of the diocese.  This allows parishioners to reflect on their own spiritual growth and discipleship and identify the ways in which the parish effectively supports that growth.

This survey will take place during Mass on February 22/23 and should take only about 10-15 minutes.  It offers us a unique and important opportunity to learn about issues of importance to families in a confidential and professional way.  We will use these results to    1) look at opportunities of support for parishioners’ growth in discipleship and 2) create goals and action plans to achieve that spiritual growth.  We will not have access to individual survey responses.

Thank you in advance for the encouragement that you will provide to our community when we solicit this feedback.  Meanwhile, if you have any questions or ideas about good ways to boost other means to help us all grow in the faith, feel free to contact me.

Love, Peace, Joy

Fr. Bob
