Message from Monsignor Frank Bognanno

Dear fellow Christ the King parisioners: <
The Survey Response Committee has completed the work of reviewing your responses to the parish survey. The committee held eight meetings beginning in October 2007 and finishing in February 2008. All the data and comments provided on the survey results were reviewed. From this information, three goals with corresponding objectives were established that are listed above.

The next phase in the process of reviewing your input will be for the Implementation Committee to write and priortize tactics that will be used to achieve the goals. The tactics will then be given to existing or new groups to implement, and a system to review progress toward the goals will be determined.

Monsignor Frank Bognanno
