THE NEW PARISH MISSION STATEMENT
(May, 2018) The parish has adopted a new mission statement with approval from all parish staff members, Parish Council and representative parish leaders.  Below is a summary of how the new mission statement was developed and what it means to all who are part of the Saint Pius X community.
 
WHY DID WE ADOPT A NEW MISSION STATEMENT?
As part of the initial phase of the strategic planning process, the steering committee, comprised of dedicated leaders in our parish, reviewed other mission statements and determined that successful statements written to guide communities were clear, concise, straight-forward, and easily repeated. After collaborating with others in the Saint Pius X community about our current mission statement around these factors, it was determined that a new mission statement would be warranted.
 
HOW WAS THE MISSION STATEMENT DEVELOPED?
The steering committee led the effort which involved several steps:
 
1) Define our parish
2) Understand a successful mission statement
3) Develop a mission statement based on who we are
4) Collaborate with others on the proposal
5) Finalize the mission statement.
 
The entire process took nearly two months to complete.

WHO SHOULD LEARN, UNDERSTAND, AND EMBRACE THE MISSION?
The mission statement was developed with the broader parish in mind. Unlike a corporate mission statement that is focused on the employees, the Parish mission statement is designed to resonate with everyone in our community as we move forward in renewing all things in Christ. Ideally, staff and the greater parish community will learn, understand and embrace the mission.
