We need to hear from you!

Bishop Senior and Father Augusty ask that all parishioners age 18 and up please take this 10 to 15 minute survey that can be accessed through this online link until November 26, 2024.

The survey asks you to reflect on your own spiritual growth and enables you to provide your perspective on our parish’s efforts to help you grow in relationship with Christ. All responses will be confidential.

Be sure to take the survey for the church where you are registered.

Upcoming Parish Survey

Disciple Maker Index

The St. Mark and St. Luke Parish is on a journey – know, love, and serve Christ in our parish community. Together we must embrace Christ’s vision for missionary discipleship so our parish can thrive and be a place for others to grow together in faith.

The very first step in this process involves assessing our greatest strengths and opportunities, and that is where the Disciple Maker Index (DMI) comes in! The DMI is an important survey tool that invites you to reflect on your discipleship journey here at St. Mark and St. Luke. The Disciple Maker Index is designed to:

  • Invite parishioners to reflect on their journey of discipleship.
  • Enable parish leadership to make data-driven decisions.
  • Help parishioners grow in their faith.

Bishop Senior is asking that all parishioners age 18 and up please take this 10–15-minute survey that can be accessed through an online link from October 18 – November 26. It will ask you to reflect on your own spiritual growth and enable you to provide your perspective on our parish’s efforts to help you grow in relationship with Christ. All responses will be confidential, and the parish will only receive information about the community as a whole. We will share the link with you a bit closer to the launch of the survey. Paper surveys will also be available for those who do not have the ability to complete the survey online.

Together we must embrace Christ’s vision for missionary discipleship so our parish can thrive and be a place for others to grow together in faith.

Thank you for helping with this important project and please continue to pray for this intention and for the growth and protection of our parish.
