Archdiocesan Disciple Maker Index Survey Period
Your voice matters. Shape the future of St. Peter’s.
St. Peters’ future is evolving alongside the other 211 parishes within the Archdiocese of Newark. Cardinal Tobin’s We Are His Witnesses letter outlines new pathways for the future of our Archdiocese, which involves examining how parishes might best consolidate and share their resources for a vibrant future.
Our commitment to Christ’s vision for missionary discipleship is the lifeline for our parish to thrive and grow in faith together. With that, the first step of this process invites you to take the Disciple Maker Index (DMI) survey — an important tool that lets you reflect on your faith journey at St. Peter’s and provide feedback on our parish. Your input will help our leaders assess parish health and identify strengths, weaknesses and opportunities for the future. We are counting on your participation!
Please take the DMI survey here beginning Saturday, April 26, 2025. If you prefer a paper copy, you may request and return one at the Rectory or at the Welcome Desk after Sunday Masses.
This year, we’ll be using this DMI survey in lieu of our own annual parish feedback survey. Last year, our survey resulted in actionable changes such as creating more ongoing faith formation opportunities for adults, including mini retreats and Bible study groups. We look forward to reviewing your DMI survey responses and sharing results in the coming months.
We are blessed by this St. Peter’s community and appreciate your participation as we strive to grow in missionary discipleship. Your voice matters as we grow together in faith. Thank you, and please pray for this intention and for the growth and protection of our parish.
