Family Life

According to the Diocese of Davenport, in the parish, the ministry of family life promotes a perspective
that views individuals in the context of relationships, especially family relationships. Family relationships
are the key criteria used to assess programs and policies in the parish. This sensitivity begs to ask the
question: how does what we do affect traditional families, blended families, single parent families.

RESPONSIBILITIES:
  • To evaluate the needs of families within the faith community.
  • To educate and enrich individuals and families through programs, workshops, retreats, newsletters, resource sites, etc.
  • To advocate for “family-friendly” programs, policies, and services in parish planning.
  • To create evangelization opportunities applicable to each stage in the family life cycle.
  • To cooperate with other groups, agencies, and institutions in the community that work with families.
  • To prepare a budget for family life activities and programs within the parish.
  • To encourage participation in deanery/diocesan family life programs.
  • To research and respond to the trends in society that impact families.
  • To understand and support the diversity in family structures and cultures.
  • To provide and encourage leadership training in a variety of areas of family ministry.
