Last week our Parish's Antiracism Committee shared with you the vision of St. Ignatius Parish as an antiracist multicultural parish. Beginning this week, we invite you to reflect on the journeys of community members who have agreed to share their experiences and struggles around the issue of racism.

The Archdiocese of San Francisco has engaged The Catholic Leadership Institute to offer its Disciple Maker Index to all members of the Church. This nationally recognized survey—which can be taken in just a few minutes—provides input into the state of each parish, and helps create a baseline for further discussion in the engagement sessions the Archdiocese is planning later in the year.

As part of Pope Francis’ call to the global Church to participate in the Synod, an opportunity for the faithful around the world to share our experiences of how the Holy Spirit is moving among us, there are two upcoming programs we invite you to take part in. The first is an online survey being conducted by the Archdiocese that will help provide a snapshot of our parish, which you can access on our new website in the Synod section. The second is a series of listening and experience-sharing sessions we’ll host here at St. Ignatius over the coming months.
