St. Mary & St. Antonios · Service Leadership

Planning the year by purpose

Every version so far of saying the same thing — from the least disruptive to the most complete, with a few that show the model from another angle. Nothing is replaced when a new one is added; every version stays here. Pick whichever the team can actually adopt — they share one model, so choosing between them costs nothing later.

Draft. Nothing here is parish policy, and no decision has been made.

What they all have in common

Every service exists first to form people — spiritually, and in the faith. That is Layer 1, and it is the foundation. Community impact is Layer 2 and rests on it. Fellowship is the mortar: it belongs in every activity and is the reason for none of them, which is why no version gives it a column of its own.

The old grid sorted activities by their shape — day trip, weekend trip, other — and a shape cannot tell you whether anyone was formed. These sort by purpose, in the order that matters.
