Crafting the Vision
Crafting the Parish Vision Statement could only have been possible after these many months of investigation and developing our understanding of our Parish, the environment in which we work and the spiritual call unique to the universal Catholic Church. It is important to know where we stand today to understand where we are called to be in the future. Once the information gathering phase of our work was completed, the Visioning Team held three consecutive weekly meetings to craft the Vision Statement. Over the course of those three weeks, the team shared Sacred Scripture, drew upon the teaching of the Church and considered all of the data which had been gathered in the previous months. All this data, including the information from the Parish Survey, was important in order to incorporate the values and beliefs of our Parishioners and the univeral Church. A final draft was adopted in late April.
