The Pathways grant is being used primarily to fund two initiatives - a welcome packet and a website.
Welcome Pack (for new parishioners) - in development. After researching what various other parishes do, the staff is now assembling ideas for a new welcome packet. The parish is drawing on the expertise of a parishioner who is a professional in creating portfolios and who has some refreshing ideas. The recommendations of a technical expert have been well received.
Parish Website - Under construction. This is a significant challenge. Ideas and approaches abound. The team shares a common goal but must decide between multiple design approaches and format options. Every approach and application has to be considered. And a significant amount of content will need to be generated.
