Parish Survey
We want to serve you better! Take 10 minutes to complete this survey so we can hear your opinions and feedback. It’s a chance for you to reflect on your spiritual growth and provide direction for the parish as we continue to grow in faith and become saints. All parishioners, eighth grade and older, are encouraged to complete the survey. Go to the link and choose your current parish to complete the survey.
All responses are confidential and anonymous and the parish will only receive information about the community as a whole—responses will not be traceable to any particular person.
We are trying to get the highest response rate possible. This information will be invaluable to us and our parish mission as we plan for the future and become the disciples we are called to be. We will receive the results this summer, at which time we will share what we have learned with the entire parish.
This survey has been emailed out to the parish to complete. If you did not receive an email please check your junk folder. You may sign up to receive emails on the website.
If you don't use email - you can get a paper copy in the back of church. Paper copies can be turned into the side porch of the cluster office by Sunday, February 26, 2023.

NEW NAME:
- The voting results have been sent to the Archbishop. He will choose a name from our three options and establish this as our new parish patron. This will likely coincide with the merger.
PERPETUAL ADORATION - ST. WENDELIN:
- A team has been established to facilitate the Perpetual Adoration Chapel at St. Wendelin. Currently meeting once a month to discuss what is needed for the transition. We will soon be asking parishioners to sign up for this important opportunity. Please prayerfully consider taking an hour for adoration when the time comes!
- The hope is to begin around the start of next school year, early September.
LATIN MASS - ST. ALOYSIUS:
- The current law under Pope Francis means this cannot begin until the parishes are merged. It is expected to coincide with our canonical merger this summer.
MERGER PROPOSAL
- After consultation with the family council, Fr. Hess submitted a letter to the Archbishop to officially start the merger process.
- Meetings are being set up with the Archdiocese and with our finance councils to work through merger transitions. Information will be shared with parishioners as we receive it.
OTHER:
- Many questions have been raised on upkeep of buildings. Building and Grounds will still be maintaining all the church buildings.
- Questions or concerns parishioners have may be brought to any family council member to be added to the family council meeting agenda.
