17. PARISH COMMUNICATIONS: In 2017, great efforts have been made in keeping members of the parish informed. The parish communications efforts promote parish programs (faith, educational and social concerns), activities and needs to the community. The tools we have are: the bulletin, the parish website, the parish Facebook page (see the back page for those addresses) and the email list. The weekly bulletin is posted online as is the pyrohy (pierogi) schedule, and the parish calendar. Parish communications is two-fold: information and faith formation. Good and effective parish communications helps our discipleship with Jesus Christ and our mutual friendship. In a continuing effort to make the bulletin more parishioner friendly, I call upon you to let me know what else you would like to see and or change. And as always I appreciate the various information that you are providing. I look forward to your responses. Father Iura.
