STRATEGIC PLAN: AREAS OF FOCUS

In May 2016 a Strategic Planning Committee was convened by Fr. Dave. The committee includes clergy, parish council members and staff. The four-year plan calls for enhancement to six areas of parish life.

This plan does not attempt to incorporate EVERY aspect of parish life that is important.  Rather, it attempts to identify a few of focus for Parish improvement over the next four years. 
 
Welcome and Community/Parish Life  
  • Welcome
 Objective:  Be a welcoming community of faith such that all aspects of the parish – physical and spiritual – say “welcome!”
   
  • Community and Parish Life
 Objective: Enhance the cohesiveness of the Parish community    

Faith Formation  
Objective: Sustain and enhance a comprehensive program of faith formation such that participants are enlivened, engaged, spiritually nourished, and growing as disciples of Christ.

Youth Ministry
Objective: Invite every high school teen within the St. Luke parish boundaries to encounter and follow Jesus Christ. Offer various groupings as gateways of evangelization and paths of discipleship within the context of the parish community.​

Communications  
Objective: Ensure that everyone – parishioners, staff and clergy – has the information they need to fully participate in the life and work of the parish.  
 
Facilities and Sacred Space  
Objective:  Develop a facility plan such that the goals of the Strategic Plan can be implemented efficiently and effectively.    

Finances  
Objective: Develop a financial plan such that the goals of the strategic plan can be implemented.  

As the Holy Father, Pope Francis, reminds us:
No one can effect change and growth alone. We can work together to continue the good work of this parish.
