Survey Results Survey Results Survey Results Survey Results By now everyone has read the results of our parish survey which

captures the reality of the needs at Corpus Christi. Though we cannot tackle all of them at the same time, the Pastoral Council will be prioritizing them and working toward meeting those needs. Corpus Christi is blessed with people from all walks of life and from different professional backgrounds. I am truly convinced that with your help, together we can ad-dress most of these needs. I am hereby, reaching out to you, to see how you can help us with your talents, professional experience, suggestions and resources. Go through the survey and let us know where you feel called to help. Remember this is part of giving back to the community. Feel free to e-mail the Pastoral council at: pastoralcouncilcc@gmail.com. Sincerely, Fr. Paschal
