    Vision 2025 is Underway!
    by Strategic Planning Team
    Over the last several months, the Parish Pastoral Council, Finance Council, Worship Commission, Pastoral Care Commission and a team of other parishioners have been involved in creating a five year plan for our parish's future. We gathered input from commissions and committees, and we asked parishioners for feedback using the Vision Wall in the narthex.

    Over the course of several weeks we will outline specific goals that the councils and commissions have developed to support these vision statements. You can also find this information archived online at www.strichards.com/vision2025.

    Make a wish - or three!
    What are your 3 wishes for our parish to be vibrant in 2025?
    As our very successful three year Capital Campaign draws to a close, it is time to re-focus our attention towards intentional planning for the next several years and the future of our parish community. To that end, we began a strategic planning process this spring with some listening sessions involving a cross-section of the parish.

    Because we would like to hear everyone’s voice, over three weekends (June 1-16) you have the opportunity to add your insights to this question on our “Vision Board” in the narthex or here on our website. Please join us in visioning the future of our great parish!
