Town Hall Meetings Set by Catholic Education & Formation Steering Committee

 

In early February, the pastors of the parishes in the Washington area announced that they had formed a Steering Committee made up of parishioners from each of the parishes.  The pastors charged this committee with studying past and present realities and with developing recommendations as to how we, as Catholics in and around the Washington area, might continue to provide for the evangelization and formational needs of our parish families and, thus, remain true to our collective mission of proclaiming the Gospel message of Jesus Christ to all parishioners.

Over the past several weeks, this committee has been diligently gathering and studying facts and information about our parishes and schools, analyzing trends within the Washington area and researching recent collaborative efforts among parishes and schools throughout the Archdiocese of St. Louis.  Eventually, the committee will begin exploring options for possible collaboration among our parishes and schools.

The pastors have further requested that the Steering Committee keep the parish and school communities informed of its progress and to reach out to parishioners, parents and teachers for advice and direction.  The Steering Committee is now prepared to share the information and research they have gathered to date and to seek input from the members of our parish and school communities. 

To do this, the Steering Committee has scheduled several Town Hall Meetings at a number of our Washington area parishes.  Below you will find the dates, times and locations of these meetings.  The Steering Committee is inviting and encouraging parishioners, parents and teachers to attend any of these sessions.
