One Month Anniversary

Today is one month since I moved back to the world of faith formation and religious education from stewardship and communication.  So, what have we accomplished in that time?  We have implemented children's liturgy of the word at one Sunday Mass, began our on-line religious education program, had a parent meeting, set shcedules for all classes, set dates for sacrament meetings, planned our Confirmation program, and have begun our adult study on the Mass.  We are in the process of updating our parish bulletin. We will have a Faith Formation page every week and double in size, from 4 to 8 pages.
Next on the agenda is to revamp our website, so I will be tapping into my vast skills at website development previous position skill set a bit.  We also need to plan our parish mission for Lent.
I am also working on re-learning about all the resources available online.
At times I want to move faster, but I keep reminding myself that it takes time to get the personality of parish and so going slowly is a good idea.  I think, pray, wait, plan, and then move forward.  I think it works well.

This means it's been a month since we've done coffee...and that it's time to get together again. Let me know when you're available -- this time is my treat!
