1 St. John the Apostle Pastoral Plan
2 A Framework for Pastoral Action Diocese of Joliet Released in 2014, the Diocese of Joliet document, Go and Make Disciples: A Framework for Pastoral Action presents a vision for pastoral action using the three pillars of discipleship, evangelization and charity. These pillars allow us to center our discussion around key areas of focus, and how our parish can uniquely respond to this call for a renewal of pastoral action. Those areas of focus include: Discipleship Cultivate a personal encounter with Jesus in order to joyfully share the Gospel as a knowledgeable and responsible disciple. Inspire young adults to participate as lay leaders in the mission of the Catholic Church. Embrace immigrant Catholics and encourage their development as leaders in the Church. Evangelization Seek, invite, and welcome Catholics who have drifted away from the Church. Emphasize and outwardly proclaim the importance of the sacraments. Charity Go outside your church doors to care for people in need. Advocate for and with people in need as the Gospel instructs you to do. St. John the Apostle Parish Mission Statement The Catholic Community of St. John the Apostle Parish commits to live out the teachings of Jesus Christ, nourished by the Eucharist, guided by the Holy Spirit and rooted in prayer. Together we continue the mission of Christ through Evangelization, Discipleship and Charity.
