April 16, 2026
Dear St. Benedict the Moor Family,
Our parish thrives because of your gifts, and I want to hear your ideas for new ministries, programs, and initiatives.
To help us discern and plan well together, I'm introducing a simple Mission Proposal process. If you have an idea, write it up in about a page, covering four things: the goal (what need does this meet?), the method (how will it work?), the resources (what and who do we need?), and the fruit (how will we know it worked?).
If you submit a proposal, I promise you three things within four weeks: I will read it, I will respond in writing, and I will thank you for the effort. No idea will go ignored.
Writing isn't your thing? No problem — we'll pair you with someone who can help you get your thoughts on paper.
Your ideas deserve more than a passing conversation. They deserve a real chance to succeed. So pray, dream, and pick up a pen.
Let's build together.
In Christ, Fr. Matthew
