GETTING DOWN TO BUSINESS
Strategic Planning Update (Week 5 Recap)
NEW Parish Mission Statement
(affirmed by Parish Pastoral Council 7/13/21)
We are courageous in empowering change, compassionate in valuing people, and Catholic in the way we seek to go in love as Jesus does.
Come as you are. All are welcome.
The Holy Cross Strategic Plan process is gathering more of our flock weekly. Our weekly Zoom of dozens has added 83 survey respondents and 100 individual Mission inputs. With all the parish involved, we are readying action to carry out the Holy Cross Mission and Vision of the future.
This week we will begin compiling all inputs into one document, the Preliminary Draft of the Strategic Plan. It will circulated for the SPC members to review by the Next Meeting: August 4th.
By the Parish Picnic, September 12th, we will have a document ready for All to review and give feedback. Thanks again for your collaborative spirit and teamwork!
Peace & Love,
Ron, Rylanda & Veronica
Strategic Planning Cmte Facilitators

INSPIRATIONAL BITE
There's Something About That Name / All My Hope - Tauren Wells (feat. Davies)
TEENS TALK
"The Catholic Youth Bible is an exciting, meaningful, and relevant faith companion that can you as you seek answers to life’s important questions.”
There are engaging notes that prompt you to connect the verses to the current world and see how you can live the way of God. This bible also has areas for you to color! I love how it lets you do activities while reading the Bible and makes the scripture easy to understand. I highly recommend it!

Whatever Bible you decide to use, I hope it can bring you closer and more connected to God.
KIDS' CORNER
