What's Your Discipleship Journey?
Saint Michael the Archangel is on a journey to know, love, and serve Christ in our parish community. Together we must embrace Christ’s vision for missionary discipleship so our parish can thrive and be a place for others to grow together in faith. The very first step in this process involves assessing our greatest strengths and opportunities, and that is where the Disciple Maker Index (DMI) comes in! The DMI is an important survey tool that invites you to reflect on your discipleship journey here at Saint Michael the Archangel.
The Disciple Maker Index is designed to:
● Invite parishioners to reflect on their journey of discipleship.
● Enable parish leadership to make data-driven decisions.
● Help parishioners grow in their faith.
The 10–15-minute survey can be accessed through an online link from July 30 through September 3 and will ask you to reflect on your own spiritual growth and enable you to provide your perspective on our parish’s efforts to help you grow in relationship with Christ. All responses will be confidential, and the parish will only receive information about the community as a whole. We will share the link with you a bit closer to the launch of the survey. Paper surveys will also be available for those who do not have the ability to complete the survey online. Together we must embrace Christ’s vision for missionary discipleship so our parish can thrive and be a place for others to grow together in faith.
Thank you for helping with this important project and please continue to pray for this intention and for the growth and protection of our parish.

Saint Michael Prayer
Saint Michael, the Archangel,
defend us in battle.
Be our protection against the wickedness
and snares of the devil.
May God rebuke him, we humbly pray;
and do thou, O Prince of the heavenly host,
by the power of God
cast into hell Satan and all the evil spirits
who prowl throughout the world seeking the ruin of souls. Amen.
