Parish Feasibility Study Survey

Reminder: Final opportunity to participate in parish survey


Dear Parishioners,

 

This is a brief final reminder that the Feasibility Study survey regarding the possible establishment of a parish mission in the Crystal Valley area will close soon. Many parishioners have already shared their thoughts, and I am grateful for the thoughtful responses we have received. If you have not yet participated, I encourage you to take a few minutes to do so. Hearing from as many households as possible helps ensure that parish leadership and the Diocese have a clear understanding of the perspectives within our community. The survey will close this weekend: http://www.surveymonkey.com/share/fcbeedb4-4f8a-4ed7-b77a-e008efb7cfc8 Thank you for taking part in this important moment of discernment for St. Francis of Assisi Parish.

About the Survey​

 

Over the past several months, we have spoken about the continued growth taking place in the Crystal Valley area and the possibility of how our parish might respond to that growth.​

 

As part of this discernment process, we are conducting a Feasibility Study to help us better understand the opportunities, concerns, and level of support that may exist within our community.

 

Today I am inviting you to participate in a brief parish survey. Your feedback will help parish leadership and the Diocese thoughtfully evaluate whether exploring the establishment of a parish mission in the Crystal Valley area may be appropriate.

 

No decisions have been made. This survey is simply one important step in listening to the parish as we prayerfully consider the future.​I encourage every household to take a few moments to share your perspective. Your input will be included, along with the feedback gathered from personal interviews, in a final report that will assist in discerning next steps.

 

Thank you for taking part in this important conversation about the future of our parish community. It is very exciting, and I am so happy to be your Pastor!

 

Gratefully in Christ,

​Fr. Mark Zacker

Pastor

Thank you for completing the Survey!

STRIVE TO ENTER - Road Construction Returns!

Fifth St Widening Project cr gov detailed phase FLYER 2025-2026.jpg

With the ongoing Fifth Street construction we definitely have a “narrow gate” to enter these days!  So many of us want to “be saved”!  We want Jesus!  But getting here can be a challenge!  The road is narrow.  There are construction vehicles along the way.  There are pylons and barriers.  We have to really slow down.  We really have to “strive to enter.”  Are you strong enough? Are you strong enough to be patient!  Are you strong enough to be courteous to each other and to the police officers who direct traffic on Sunday mornings?  Please strive! - Fr. Mark Zacker
