Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,
First, I want to thank each of you who participated in the St. Gerald Listening Sessions on June 1st and 3rd. The insights and lived experience you shared is important feedback as we continue this important work of Archdiocesan Restructuring.
For those of you who attended a listening session, you should expect an email from the Catholic Leadership Institute with a link to complete the online survey. The email will be sent out the week of June 22, 2026; 72 hours after the final listening session, in our region, scheduled for June 18, 2026.
If you were unable to attend a listening session, rest assured that you will be able to view all the models by going to the Archdiocesan Restructuring website at restructuring.aod.org, beginning the week of June 22, 2026. This survey will remain open through July 31, 2026
If you need assistance completing the online survey, please call the Parish Office (248)477-7470 to set up an appointment. It should take approximately 20 minutes for each appointment.
As you know, parish listening sessions will continue to take place across the Archdiocese through mid-June. While it may seem that our “work” in this phase is done, I ask each of you to continue our most important work: prayer. Please continue to pray for all of our parishes, priests, staff, and lay faithful throughout this process.
Sincerely in Christ,
Fr. Krzysztof Nowak
