Pilot Objectives
1. Create a multi-parish collaborative effort utilizing current and trending technology solutions.
2. Cultivate an environment to promote strategic development of new initiatives and enhance/expand parish ministries by fostering partnerships, enabling functional integration and utilization of shared resources
3. Utilize change management strategies to foster parish visioning and strategic decision making to increase the long-term benefits of the project for participating parishes.
For our parish…
If the application of technology could solve one issue or challenge that you or your parish is experiencing right now in the following areas, what would that be?
• Catholic Faith Formation
• Communication within the Parish Community & Leaders (both staff and volunteers)
• Ministry Collaboration within your parish groups and among other parishes in your area
Goal 1
Leverage technology resources to enable collaboration among participating parishes in the areas of faith
formation, sacramental preparation, outreach, and evangelization.
