Dear Members of the Northwest Catholic Pastoral Region -
            Parishioners of St. Rita, Precious Blood, and St. Paul Parishes,

We, though many, are one body in Christ (Romans 12:5)

Thanks to all who attended the regional 4:30 p.m. Saturday Mass at Precious Blood Church this summer!  Special thanks also to all who took the time to fill out the survey about your experience of this regional summer Mass – almost 300 surveys were returned!  The results of the “overall experience” part of the survey are below.

In an effort to save paper, the results for each category as well as comments from all three parishes are not being copied for everyone.  For those who would like to see all this information from the survey, please go to the Precious Blood Parish website,   www.preciousbloodchurch.org.  For those who would like a hard copy of the survey comments, you can print these off the website.  “Hard copies” of these are also available at all three parish offices. 

Our next combined pastoral region activity will be a choir concert and vespers on the Solemnity of Christ the King, Sunday, November 23, 2008 at St. Rita Church.  This is the third year we have celebrated together on the evening of this last Sunday of the liturgical year.  The concert is at 7:00 p.m. followed by vespers at 7:30 p.m.  Plan to be with us!

May the Lord continue to bless and guide all our combined efforts within our pastoral region.

 Sincerely yours,

 The Northwest Dayton Pastoral Region Planning Committee
