What’s on Your Heart?
This Lent, the Diocese of Covington will be conducting a survey on discipleship called the Disciple Maker Index (DMI) through each parish, and they want to hear from you! As part of the diocesan With One Heart initiative, the survey will ask you to reflect on your own spiritual growth and on your parish’s efforts to help you become the best disciple you can be. The information gathered will be used to plan for the future so your parish can become a more faith-filled, vibrant community. The greater the participation, the more reliable the information will be for effective decision-making. The DMI will be accessible online from February 22 through March 27 and will take 10-15 minutes to complete (paper surveys are available for those who need them.) All responses will be confidential; the parish will only receive information about the community as a whole. Results will be shared with the parish in late spring/early summer. Check your parish bulletin, website, and listen for pulpit announcements for more information, or go to https://covdio.org/WithOneHeart. Take the Disciple Maker Index this Lent!
