Parish ministry today is complex. Leaders are balancing full calendars, limited resources, and the deep desire to truly accompany people in their faith. However, the common practice of measuring attendance, participation, and giving doesn’t tell the full story. Those numbers don’t measure how people are growing in faith or where real transformation is happening.
Grounded in Catholic social tradition, the Transformational Ministry Assessment offers a new, hopeful opportunity for parishes to reflect on how its forming people–and where God might be inviting it to grow.
Rooted in the walk to Emmaus story (Luke 24:13-35), this workbook introduces the Transformational Ministry Framework and the importance of shifting how your faith community defines success.
This questionnaire assesses a program or area of your ministry according to four Categories of Transformation: Head, Heart, Hands, and Community to identify measurable ministry outcomes in people’s lives.
From reflecting theologically and discussing best practices to strategizing next steps, our discussion materials lead to an actionable conversation about the questionnaire’s results.
Our trained facilitators walk with your faith community throughout the assessment process, providing valuable outside perspective and support.
