Helping St. Mary’s Build a Thriving Relationship Ministry
Our parish has partnered with Communio, a nonprofit ministry that equips parishes with outreach tools and ministry strategies to evangelize and disciple people through the renewal of healthy marriages, relationships, and the family.
They’re helping us set ambitious ministry outcomes and the activities to achieve those outcomes:
- We’re going to use digital and mail outreach to invite members of our community to the parish.
- We’re going to host ongoing events and experiences that build up community and friendships within our parish and with those in the community.
- We’re going to implement new skills-based ministries that help people in all stages of romantic life—whether you’re single, dating, engaged, or married—strengthen their relationships.
Our First Step: Listening to You
Before we launch this new initiative, our first big step as a parish staff is to understand the unique relationship needs of our parishioners. This will help us select the right events, experiences, and ministries for the coming months and years.
So now we’re asking everyone 18 or older to complete a short survey. It’s anonymous and should only take about 3 minutes to complete. The greater participation we have, the more valuable the data will be as we craft a strategy.

If you prefer, paper surveys are also available at Mass. Please fill them out anonymously and drop them in the baskets near each exit.
Thank you for helping St. Mary’s build a relationship ministry that will thrive and truly meet the needs of our parish and community.
