“Rooted in Christ” Pastoral Plan for the Diocese of Grand Rapids

As Bishop Walkowiak announced earlier this year, it has been more than a decade
since the Diocese of Grand Rapids underwent a pastoral planning process. It is now
time to create an updated plan to assess more intentionally the needs and resources of
our local church, along with exploring opportunities for growth and evangelization.
The process involves data collection, parish visits, and dialogue to identify challenges
and opportunities facing our parishes, schools, and the diocese.
