Disciple Maker Index Survey

At the direction of Bishop Mark Beckman, the diocese is partnering with the Catholic Leadership Institute and all parishes in the diocese are participating in the Disciple Maker Index (DMI) Survey. This is an opportunity for you to reflect on your spiritual growth and help our parish and diocesan leadership better understand the needs of our faith community.

The first step along this journey is to assess our greatest opportunities and strengths, and the Disciple Maker Index survey is an important tool that will help us do just that. The Disciple Maker Index (DMI) is designed to:

  • Invite parishioners to reflect on their journey of discipleship.
  • Enable parish leadership to make data-driven decisions.
  • And help parishioners grow in their faith.

The DMI survey is live on Ash Wednesday, March 5, 2025. We encourage you to participate as the results will serve to strengthen our parish and better prepare us for the future. A comprehensive report of the findings will be shared with you in the coming months.

Please click on the link below or at the bottom of this article to participate in the survey. All your responses are completely confidential.

When you have completed the survey, just click SUBMIT SURVEY and you are finished!

Questions or Need Assistance? Contact the parish office for any help to aid you in completing the survey.

All surveys must be submitted by Easter Sunday, April 20, 2025.

At St. Francis of Assisi, Townsend, we are blessed in so many ways. Together, we will identify our strengths and opportunities in greater detail as we strive to grow in missionary discipleship.Together, using the Disciple Maker Index survey, we will identify our strengths and opportunities in greater detail as we strive to grow in missionary discipleship.

Please continue to pray for this intention and for the growth and initiatives of our parish.
