2021 Stewardship
An Act of the Heart
|
|
From Pandemic to Post-Pandemic and Beyond
As the new year begins, so does our Cathedral Stewardship year. There will be some familiar elements to accompany the roll-out of the year: mailing of a stewardship letter and form; hearing from committed parishioners at Masses on the January 23/24 weekend; a special stewardship message from Fr. Linebach on January 30/31; and Commitment Sunday the weekend of February 13/14.
What's new? There will be one question we will all be asked to discern on the stewardship form. Living through the pandemic, we have had to rethink so many ordinary parts of our lives, and each of us probably has a real sense of what is essential to build upon. Let us know what is on your heart, your vision, for our parish as we go forward.

We need your perspective on walking and biking in the area!
The KIPDA Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) is responsible for transportation planning in the greater Louisville region, including Bullitt, Jefferson, and Oldham counties in Kentucky, and Clark and Floyd counties in Indiana. In the coming weeks, our staff will be developing a new Active Transportation Plan to guide investment in walking and cycling infrastructure. A key step in this planning process is understanding the frustrations, needs, and desires of walkers and cyclists in our community.
That’s where you come in! We are hoping to connect with people who walk or ride to work, to school, or for fun. We would also love to hear from people interested in walking or biking, but who are nervous or have concerns.
Please take a few minutes to fill out the survey found at the link below:
Please also help us spread the word by sharing this link with your friends, associates, mailing lists, like-minded organizations, or anyone with an interest in walking and biking in our community.
This survey will be open until February 9th. If you have any questions or comments, feel free to reach out to Elizabeth Farc, Transportation Planner, at:
