We Invite (Part 2)
As parishioners, WE INVITE. I will invite, welcome, embrace, and assist anyone who wishes to follow Jesus. I am an integral part of the Body of Christ and the family of our parish; therefore I am intent on forming a community of inclusive love, acceptance, and concern.

Zoom Discussion Groups on Community Covenant
An important part of this process will be a conversation about what we have experienced. As we continue to keep everyone’s safety in mind, these conversations will be done virtually using Zoom. With Zoom you may connect by way of your computer, smart device, or phone. A Zoom link will be sent to you through Flocknote email each Sunday prior to the scheduled conversation.

In our everyday world we use the word covenant to describe a usually, formal, solemn, and binding agreement. Covenant holds more weight than the word contract. It implies a promise that is often rooted in relationship.
What is this Community Covenant anyway!?
To help us to be more aware of our relationship with Christ and the parish, the pastoral council has gathered the wisdom from, scripture, books on discipleship in todays world, and listening to parishioners. They have drawn together those thoughts in a covenant for our parish. This covenant is a document that expresses the relationship between the community and a single member of the parish from both sides. It is a vision of what it looks like to be a disciple, as well as a vision of a vibrant and inclusive parish community. Our Community Covenant has 6 sections: We Pray, We Invite, We Serve, We Nurture, We Go Forth, and We Embrace.
To help form this parish community in our Community Covenant we are using a video series "To Become One" as well as discussion groups held by way of Zoom.
