St. Patrick Vitality Goals
-
Vitality Goal #1
-
Goal
Strengthen our outreach to new members of the community by hosting a blood drive and delivering welcome baskets.
-
Rationale
It is important to build our parish and our footprint in the community. Due to decreasing Mass attendance, we feel a need to provide better community outreach.

Vitality Goal #2
-
Goal
By June 2024, Parish Life leadership will host young families in their homes for social interaction/relationship building as measured by attendance at these functions. We anticipate this will lead to conversations about returning to Mass and participating in parish ministries and activities.
-
Rationale
We see the need to extend hospitality to young families in our parish and community. We anticipate these conversations will encourage some to return to Mass and become involved in ministries.

Vitality Goal #3
-
Goal
By June 2024, new, existing, and former parishioner involvement in ministries and activities will increase as measured by the number of volunteers participating.
-
Rationale
Belonging is a basic human need that is emphasized in Scrpture. When we belong to a gorup, we engage with and support the group, leading to greater participation. Our Pastoral Council wants to evolve the culture of our parish into one that is ever more caring and supportive, leading more people to Jesus.
