Follow-up Webinars: Using the Disciple Maker Index (DMI) Survey -NEW

As of April 22, 2024, we have collected over 7,400 online and paper responses to the DMI surveys! Catholic Leadership Institute is currently processing additional paper surveys. Thanks for all you have done to promote this opportunity for reflection and growth. Next, we learn how to use the DMI survey responses to develop a pastoral plan.

Parish leaders, staff, and pastoral councils are invited to participate in Zoom webinars about how to interpret and use their DMI Survey results. You will have a choice of three times to participate in each webinar in English: Tuesdays at 6pm, Wednesdays at 3pm or Thursdays at 1pm, on May 28-30, June 4-6 and June 11-13. Recordings will also be provided in Spanish. Save-the-date and check your email for the links. You can RSVP to receive reminders of the links for your sessions.
