A Message from Fr. Alan E. Morris
Parish Bulletin: February 11, 2024

During Lent 2023, we asked parishioners to complete the diocesan-wide Disciple
Maker Index Survey through Catholic Leadership Institute. Based on the analysis of
the survey results for Archangel Gabriel Parish, I assembled an Envisioning Team to
develop a Pastoral Plan for the parish. This Pastoral Plan was submitted to Bishop
Zubik this past week. The Envisioning Team included members of the parish leadership
councils and other members of the parish.

Fortunately, we had developed a Pastoral Plan in 2020-21, which, upon review, we
decided we could update and continue to use for our new Pastoral Plan. This has
saved us a significant amount of time and work.

We have adopted a Parish Purpose Statement, Vision Statement, and five parish
Priorities that the parish will focus on over the next several years. These are all inlcuded in the document below. Click here to download a printable version.
