In Christ,
We are Bread for one another:
Broken...we gather
Nourished...we reach out
In the spirit of Vatican II's call for individual conversion and communal transformation, we commit ourselves to be an evangelizing community of disciples. We will do this by:
- living our faith fully and enthusiastically;
- sharing it with others, by word and witness;
- working to transform the world in Christ.
Pastoral Planning at St. Rose
Since 1990, St. Rose has tapped the resources of parishioners expert in
strategic planning to help us develop a clearer vision of who we are and
where we want to go as a community. The four documents listed below contain the written fruits of parish-wide consultations, self-studies, needs
assessments, listening sessions, debates and deliberations, and countless hours of thoughtful and prayerful reflection by the members of our community. Each of these five-year Pastoral Plans was
many months in the making, and each captures both who we were at the time they were formulated as well as who we longed to become over a period of time. We hope they will stir in you some measure
of the enthusiasm and excitement felt by those who were part of their formulation (and who, of course, continue to work on their implementation).

Unity-in-Diversity
As a result of the mandate in All Are Welcome, a Unity-in-Diversity Plan has been developed and a committee established to oversee its implementation. The Unity-in-Diversity Committee is an outgrowth of this Plan, promulgated on September 15, 2001. The Committee is charged with "promoting, monitoring and serving as a resource for the full implementation of this plan."
