FUTURE PLANNING FOCUS GROUPS 5/19 7p & 5/23 9:30a in the Parish Hall--
Have a Say About the Future of All Saints Catholic Community

No one has to be told that our parish is in the center of dramatic community development and change. The Pastoral Council, aware of this rapid and significant transformation, has undertaken a strategic planning process to prepare the parish to serve the All Saints Catholic Community in the future. The process has included a detailed analysis of the changing population. Using Mission Insight, a large source of data and projections used by churches across the country, these changes are predicted:

• 23% population growth in 10 years;
• 25% household income increase in 10 years;
• Increase in the population age segment 5 – 17 years old from
13% of the population to 22% of the population in 10 years.

The Pastoral Council has identified possible future goals for the All Saints Catholic Community for the next 10 years. Please join us for a one-hour focus group where you can investigate more of the projection data and provide your input regarding the future goals and directions. Please note: THIS IS NOT A FUNDRAISING ACTIVITY! We need your input regarding where we are going!

Focus groups will be held in the Parish Hall at on Tuesday, May 19th 7-8 pm and Saturday, May 23rd 9:30-10:30 am. Just show up and please spread the word. Bring your friends. We want to hear from you. If you have any questions, you may contact Stephanie Sullivan at [email protected].
