In late May, our Key Parish Leaders (Christy Biundo, Brooks Goedeker, Leigh Manalang, Andrew Rettig, Gary Stoff, Fr. Ron, and Mary Regan) had the opportunity to watch a webinar that discussed how to assess our parish's Disciple Maker Index results as well as demographic information from the Archdiocese, our planning area, and our parish.
In the beginning of June the parish team received this information and began work on the feedback form which was filled out and returned to the Archdiocese this past week. The form is designed to provide a picture of our parish community today. The form responses, based on the DMI responses from the parish, evaluate our parish’s priorities for evangelization and local social outreach. This information is shared with the Archdiocesan ATN team and "will inform and guide the initiative and the subcommittees for evangelization, family, youth, and young adult ministries as well as the subcommittee for Catholic presence and social outreach."
The Archdiocesan DMI survey results were published in the June 20 issue of the St. Louis Review and on the All Things New website at allthingsnew.archstl.org/DMI-Results. The Catholic Education Survey results are scheduled to be published at the end of July.
