You can read information or watch videos about All Things News on the Archdiocese of St. Louis site here.
An important action for each lay person in the Archdiocese of St. Louis is to take the Disciple Maker Index Survey. The survery opens Wednesday, March 2 at 7 a.m. (You will not be able to access the survey before then.) Please help us participate by completing the 10-15 minute survey as soon as possible. Go to https://portal.catholicleaders.org/d/yybcty to complete survey online.
If you do not have access to a computer, you can obtain a paper copy of the survey at daily or Sunday Mass in the vestibule, by visiting the Parish Office, or by contacting Kathy in the Parish office (314/432-6224) to have it mailed to you. Paper surveys must be returned in the collection basket or to the Parish Office. We will mail them to the organization coordinating the survey. The information you provide will be entered into the system with the electronic surveys.
The survey will be available from March 2 to April 4 only. It will ask you to reflect on your own spiritual growth, and enable you to provide feedback on our parish’s efforts to help you grow. All responses will be confidential and the parish will only receive information about the community as whole.
We are trying to get the highest response rate possible. Every member of the family (age 15 or older) is eligible to take the survey. Your input is critical to the success of All Things New for the Archdiocese, and especially for St. Richard. This information will be invaluable to me and our various ministries as we plan for the future and strive to be the best disciples we can be.
We will receive the results this spring/summer at which time we will share what we have learned with the entire parish.
Thank you for helping with this important project!
Blessings,
Fr. Gene
