We are well on our way to updating our Parish Census. Indeed, it is a lot of work. We are in the process of looking at all the names that are on the parish membership list and verifying information. In some cases people are no longer members of the parish. In may cases the record has not been updated to reflect children in a family, to acknowledge that someone is deceased, etc.
And so I encourage you, if you haven’t looked over your census form and made the corrections necessary and brought it back to church, please do so as soon as possible.
And, of course, we’re discovering so many people that have worshipped at The Church of the Precious Blood for a while but are not registered members.
The end result of this major task is to be able to answer the question of WHO makes up the community of the Church of the Precious Blood. What do we really look like as far as number, where we live, what the ages are, etc.
In the end it will be great to look at and know. And it will help us to better serve one another as we attempt to live our Mission and be disciples of Jesus Christ.
Thanks for all who are helping in this project.
Peace
Fr. Bob
