SUMMARY OF DIOCESAN STRATEGIC PLAN GOALS Governance and Leadership: Goal - The Diocese, in order to achieve its Mission and Vision, will have in place governance and leadership struc-tures and processes that help ensure responsible, effective and efficient management of all diocesan operations, including the parishes and schools. Immediate Goals (1-24 months) Develop standard and consistent governance definitions and provide Canon Law educational opportunities to appropriate staff, leaders, boards and committees. As part of implementing the Strategic Plan, review all Pastoral Center departments. Make changes as necessary to their purpose, activities, processes, staffing, and job descriptions to align with the plan priorities. Re-evaluate all diocesan boards, councils, commissions, task forces and committees. Review and revise, as neces-sary, current charters, governance documents and guidelines. Sunset any unnecessary governance structures or duplicated efforts. Schedule and facilitate periodic interaction between the chairs of the various boards and councils. Distribute the current Diocesan Pastoral Center organizational chart that shows reporting structures and areas of responsibility (a current phone list to be kept up-to-date for all diocesan sites). Develop standardized operational resources and tools for all human resource activities and financial reporting for all diocesan sites. Define and communicate processes and procedures for decision-making between the parishes and the Diocese. Diocesan leaders to adopt standards of excellence for all diocesan and parish governance systems and structures. Develop systems of responsibility and accountability for maintaining and achieving these standards. Prepare a comprehensive manual of all policies and procedures, guidelines and decrees that address how deci-sions are made and who has the delegated authority to make them. Diocesan Communications Department to develop and manage a Diocesan Master Calendar of all major diocesan happenings and distribute it to all parishes. This will help ensure better coordination of events and avoid conflicts with parish life.

LOS SIETE SANTOS FUNDADORES DE LA ORDEN DE LOS SIERVOS DE MARÍA
17 de febrero
La fiesta litúrgica de hoy honra a los siete santos fundadores de la Orden de los Siervos de Santa María
Virgen cuyos nombres eran: Alejo, Amadeo, Hugo, Benito, Bartolomé, Gerardino y Juan; un grupo de co-
merciantes que renunciaron a la vida de negocios, dejaron lo necesario para sus familias, repartieron lo de-
más entre los pobres y se dedicaron por entero a la veneración de María Virgen, yéndose a vivir a una mon-
taña italiana y posteriormente, asumiendo una vida ermitaña, esto es, de oración, ayuno extremo y peniten-
cia. Tiempo después, a petición del delegado del Sumo Pontífice, todos, excepto uno, se ordenan sacerdotes.
El hermano Alejo, por considerar el sacerdocio como algo muy grande para él, decide permanecer como her-
mano. La Congregación fue aprobada en 1304 y la fiesta litúrgica se enmarca el día de hoy, precisamente
porque en este día murió el último de ellos, el hermano Alejo, de quienes los jóvenes novicios escucharon el
testimonio de santidad que dio de sus compañeros así como de su vida misma. —Miguel Arias, Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.
Sexto Domingo del Tiempo Ordinario
16 de febrero de 2020 Lo que Dios ha preparado para los que lo aman, ni el ojo lo ha visto,
ni el oído lo ha escuchado, ni la mente del hombre pudo siquiera
haberlo imaginado.
A nosotros, en cambio, Dios nos lo ha revelado
por el Espíritu.
— 1 Corintios 2:9-10
MALA COMPAÑÍA Las personas que viven con soledad con el tiempo
se vuelven desleales a su compañía.
—Anonimo
CONCIENCIA
Trabaja para mantener viva en tu corazón la chispa
del fuego celestial, esa que se llama conciencia.
—George Washington
