Fr Jim’s Jottings

Friends, St Joe’s is entering some challenging days. First of all, we are involved in our ALPHA Program. Many of you have participated already. And we’ll continue to invite more parishioners to join in the months ahead.
Secondly, we’re embarking on a Parish Mission Plan that will give us some specific parish goals for the next few years.
And thirdly, our parish will be joining in the Diocesan Capital Campaign this fall called “One by One”.
Today’s bulletin highlights our Parish Mission Plan on page 3. This past year a group of parishioners put together five goals that our parish can work on over the next few years. Of course, we hope many parishioners will join in this effort.
We’d like to invigorate our Religious Education Program (IPRF) as well as strengthen our relationship with the Xavier Catholic School System. Also we need to revitalize the many parish committees that have become less effective over the past few years. Another goal is to find ways of reaching out to young adults in our area. Finally, we think St Joe’s could find a local agency to partner with in helping those in need.
If you would like to get involved in this effort, we need YOU. Over the next month or so, we will try to explain in greater details these five goals. We hope that implementing this Parish Mission Plan will make our parish more focused and bring us greater life.
