A Message from our Parish Council President
September 2021
Dear Fellow Parishioners, Before every weekend Mass, we pray our parish prayer together acknowledging “every good thing comes from you”, our one God. We are forever grateful for the blessings, opportunities and challenges God offers to us, which allows us to grow even closer and dependent on Him. Keeping this important message in mind, your Parish Council is at work to address our strategic initiative goals and to advise, support and help Father Gregory continue to build our amazing parish for God. In the coming months, you’ll notice a few positive enhancements in our church vestibule and gathering area, which will add to our parish community and worship environment. Stay tuned! You’ll also observe all the activities taking place at our Parish Ministry Center (PMC). From numerous meetings to Bible Studies to faith formation classes to funeral receptions and so much more, we are making good use of our multi-functional parish center. We’re taking steps to broaden and strengthen our relationship between our parish and school. So buckle up. It’s going to be a great year! Our St. Peter parish is truly blessed to be “one body” together serving our Lord through worship, prayer, education, service and stewardship. The “power of one” is never more apparent than here in our church community; what one individual, one family, one community of Christ can do to make a difference in the world around them. Through one God, together we can serve as “one body” to better serve our own parish community, school and the world. May you and your families and friends continue to be blessed. Always in Christ, J.J. Kaelin Parish Council President St. Peter Parish Council News

Hello,
I am Ed Paulovich, Vice President of the Parish Council. I would like to invite all parishioners to click here to view the Strategic Plan Update. The Parish Council is excited to update parishioners regarding the five parish council strategic plan goals. Liturgy Youth Engagement Education Communication Financial Health All goals have been developed by the St. Peter Parish Council. Each goal’s related activities are being enhanced and implemented by the St. Peter Parish Staff and Volunteers. The Parish Council studies each goal’s productivity to ensure relevancy, accountability and transparency with all activities associated with each goal. Our Mission Statement is our guide in developing activities to address each goal. It reads as follows: “St. Peter Parish is a welcoming community of different backgrounds living the joy of Catholic Faith in the Diocese of Colorado Springs.” After you review the update, please let us know if you have any questions or comments. Again, thank you for your attention in helping us build an amazing Parish. Sincerely, Ed Paulovich Vice President St. Peter Parish Council |
