Partners in the Gospel Viability Metrics

Next weekend, the PFAC* will be releasing the long-awaited report on our Parish Family Viability metrics. I want to emphasize how important it is for all of our parishioners to review it in preparation for the after Easter listening sessions. There is a lot of information to process, and our conversations will not be fruitful if all of our table time is spent just trying to get our head around the charts and graphs on offer.

In order to help up prepare for this report, the PFAC has been publishing explanations of the different sections of the report, what will be included in those sections, and why they matter. You can find those posts at https://www.whatcomcatholic.org/about-the-process. I would specifically highlight:

Finally, please RSVP to one of our post-Easter Listening Sessions by clicking https://archseattle.ccbchurch.com/goto/forms/7508/responses/new

*”Parish Family Advisory Council”, the group of volunteers who has been working long hours to carry out our Partners in the Gospel process and ensure that it is a success.
