Dear Parish Family,
Evaluation Program (Leadership 360) Thank You and Summary
I would like to begin by thanking all who were able to fill out a feedback survey my on behalf. It was gracious of all those who were able to spend their time and energy on this request. All feedback was totally anonymous and I was NOT given the names of the people who gave feedback. I have learned a great deal from the process and was able to gain some great insights.
Here are the main insights that I gained from the Parish-wide survey:
• A wonderful role model for the parish children, learns the names of the school children.
• Welcoming, personable, friendly, easy and comfortable to talk with by being a great listener. Connects and interacts well with people of all ages.
• Hard Worker and a Good Holy Priest
Thank you for the kind, thoughtful, encouraging, and affirming comments. The feedback warmed my heart. One thing I learned from the feedback process was to continue to maximize strengths. These talents are a gift from God and should be used often and generously. Using our gifts we can become stronger. Of course with any feedback process areas of growth will come to light. Be assured that I have and will take these areas of growth to prayer asking Jesus what steps I need to take to improve my ministry.
This feedback process is part of the normal Archdiocese evaluation program. This means that the survey is not connected in anyway with a potential transfer of assignment at this time. This program is just a way to learn what is working and what areas might need some growth in a priest’s ministry.
Once again I am so grateful for all those who were able to be part of this feedback process. I truly love being one of your parish priests. I would be most grateful for your prayers as I work to continue to develop my talents. Be assured of my daily prayers for you and the parish.
In prayer,
Fr. John Hetland
