Creative Ideas for Building Up Your Parish

Everything in parish life must build and strengthen healthy and reciprocal relationships among the members.

RENEW International team members Mary Ann Jeselson and Carole Garibaldi Rogers collected creative ideas for building vibrant parishes from their visits to parishes across the country.

These ideas are in the areas of hospitality, gratitude, welcoming back Catholics who have left, faith formation, and reaching beyond church walls. Each idea includes a list of things to consider when implementing at your parish.
