Diocesan Survey From the Bishop Coadjutor Search Committee
Replies requested by June 30th
What Kind of Person Would Make the Ideal Next Bishop of Southwest Florida?
The job of selecting the candidate who will become the 6th Bishop of the Diocese of Southwest Florida is an awesome task, but every parishioner throughout this diverse diocese will have a say in how this process advances. To gauge the feelings of each church member, an online survey is now available through the links below.
The individual responses to this anonymous survey will be kept strictly confidential and will be used collectively to prepare a profile of the diocese, giving potential candidates and the search committee an idea of what kind of person would make the ideal next bishop for Southwest Florida. The committee is asking everyone to prayerfully consider the seven questions included in the survey, which should take about 10 minutes to complete. Answers must be submitted by June 30th (Note new date).
We look forward to receiving your answers.
Thank you!
SWFL Bishop Coadjutor Search Committee

Five Wishes
You know the saying, “Careful what you wish for.” I am going to give you the opposite opinion – careful for what you don’t wish for. Who do you wish to make health care decisions for you if you can no longer make them for yourself? What is your wish for the kind of medical treatment you want or don’t want? What dignity and comfort do wish to have in your final days on earth? What is your wish for how neighbors and acquaintances treat you and what do you want others outside of your circle of family and loved ones to know about an illness? What do you wish for your loved ones to know?
These questions are taken from a workbook called the Five Wishes which was created by Jim Towey after working closely with Mother Teresa and living in a hospice she ran in Washington DC. He created a short workbook to help people plan ahead in order to cope with the possibility dying from a serious illness. The Five Wishes asks the following:
1) What is your wish for who directs health care decisions
2) What medical treatment do you wish for (or not wish for)
3) What is your wish for comfort and dignity
4) What is you wish for your neighbors to know (or not know)
and how would you like them to treat you
5) What do you wish your loved ones to know
My dad and I had a conversation about this. It is his wish that while in hospice to not to go back to the hospital again; but, if he breaks his leg, that’s a different story and it related to question #2 – what medical treatment do you wish/not wish for. Often when I am told of someone who is ill or in the hospital, I will ask what, if anything, can I announce to the congregation – that is the #4 wish question: what do you want others to know. Similarly, on our prayer list, we have some folks that we pray for by name but do not mention for what it is that we are praying for; others, we mention out loud what they are going through. God knows what it is,
it is simply our role to pray. Likewise, it’s my pastoral role to find out what others should or should not know about someone’s illness.
The last of the wishes – what do you wish your loved ones to know – is something that doesn’t take a 12-page packet, or a visit with a priest, it is something you can ponder and act on today.
If you are interested in the Five Wishes, please visit their website, fivewishes.org. On their site you can purchase the packet and get more information. I do have one copy on my desk if you would like to take a look. Unlike the conventional phrase of being careful for what one wishes for, as your pastor, I’d advise you to consider these five wishes. If you would like to talk more about this, feel free to email, call, Zoom, or sign up for a visit on my calendar in the Gallery table. That’s my wish.
-Fr. Dave
