Disciple Maker Index Survey
Check out this video from Archbishop Zinkula regarding the Disciple Maker Index Survey
The Disciple Maker Index Survey is OPEN!
Our parish, along with all others in the archdiocese, is participating in a parish Disciple Maker Index (DMI) survey conducted by Catholic Leadership Institute. Many of us participated in the archdiocesan survey for the global synod during January and February of 2022. Archbishop Zinkula has reviewed the synod report generated by 16,000 household responses. The DMI survey is the next step in a process that will lead to new mission and vision statements, and pastoral priorities.
The DMI is an important survey tool that invites you to reflect on your discipleship journey here at our parish.
Take the DMI survey today. https://portal.catholicleaders.org/d/bty695
- Your input helps strengthen our parish.
- Results help leadership prepare for the future.
- A report of the findings will be shared in early 2025
The survey will be open from December 5 – January 9. Paper surveys will be available for those who do not have the ability to complete the survey online. Paper surveys will be available starting December 8th.
Together, we will identify our strengths and opportunities in greater detail as we strive to grow in missionary discipleship and help craft our common vision for the future.

An Act of Spiritual Communion
"My Jesus, I believe that You are present in the Most Holy Sacrament. I love You above all things, and I desire to receive You into my soul. Since I cannot at this moment receive You sacramentally, come at least spiritually into my heart. I embrace You as if You were already there and unite myself wholly to You. Never permit me to be separated from You.
Amen."
