Although we may not be able to address all suggestions, we certainly want to know the major concerns that are on the minds of those within our community. The survey is anonymous, but there is an opportunity to put your name and contact information if you choose to do so. Although some questions are very specific, there are several opportunities within the survey to share your thoughts on whatever topics are important to you. We thank you in advance for your time, suggestions, concerns, support, new ideas, and prayer for the continued success of Our Lady of Perpetual Help. This is an opportunity for our community to learn and grow in a positive direction, and we are asking for your help to accomplish that goal. Sincerely, OLPH Pastoral Council
