Certificate
We do offer a certificate for those completing Shaping the Parish.
The certificate is available for those completing these requirements.
1. Full participation in at least 55 hours of the workshops (62 hours). To include the first sessions of each cycle.
2. Reading the seven required books, all the readings provided related to specific modules and sessions, and one book from the “Supplemental Reading” list (your choice). Note: everyone participating is asked to complete the assigned readings related to specific modules or sessions. That will include about 60% of the material in the 7 required books and other material provided as PDFs).
3. Completing all the assigned projects and a parish developmental initiative which is done in your second year. About the Developmental Initiative.
Forms used in the PDI process

Evaluation: Sample, may be used in receiving feedback from participants
You’ll be asked to certify that you have completed all that work. That must be sent to Brother Robert within one month after your last session. That allows you a bit of time to compete the readings.
The certificate will be send as an email attachment. We leave it to you to download, print, and frame it if you wish.
