    Values of the Goals

    Faith in Jesus–
    Our Savior understands us, saves us by his cross, and gives us hope through his resurrection

    Encounter Jesus-

    Discipleship –
    We sit at the foot of Jesus to learn from Him and act according to the Truth he taught

    Hospitality –
    Welcoming all with the joy and compassion of Christ
     

    Communication-
    Respectfully and actively engage others in the Gospel with integrity and love

      
      Administrative Goals 
    • To support the work of evangelization through a new parish database

      • Purchase a new parish database program which offers the best way to access information, create databases and promote staff collaboration.

      • Determine active and inactive parishioners.

      • Reach out to the shut-ins and inactive parishioners.

       Youth Faith Formation
