Online survey for pastoral needs assessment available through May 19

Archdiocesan Catholics are invited to participate in an online survey through which they can share what they believe are the strengths and areas for improvement in the Church in central and southern Indiana.

The survey, which is available online in English, Spanish and Burmese through May 19, is part of an archdiocesan pastoral assessment commissioned late last year by Cardinal Joseph W. Tobin shortly before his ministry here came to an end and he was installed as the archbishop of Newark, N.J.

The assessment has also included listening sessions involving parish leaders from across the archdiocese and other interviews. Expected to be completed by the end of June, it is intended to present a clear picture of the Church in central and southern Indiana for the next archbishop of Indianapolis when he is appointed by Pope Francis.
