St. Ignatius of Antioch – Rector Search Committee Update
Survey to Start September 15
Rector Search Committee has met on four occasions
As a reminder, the Committee members are: Kathy Fields, Jim Hallwas, Ernie
Kraak, Roger Van Patten (Vestry), Ken Ward, Linda Mizwicki (Co-Chair), and Warren
Cinnick (Co-Chair).
Two main activities right now:
o Creating a Parish Profile document, which will be used in communicating with
rector candidates
o Initiating a survey of parishioners, to ensure the views of everyone are included
in the work of the Search Committee
Survey will begin on Thursday, September 15
o It will be available in three ways:
On-line sent via email
Paper form send via US Mail
Paper form picked-up at Sunday Services starting on September 18
Paper forms of the survey need to be returned to the Parish Office for
entry into the electronic survey portal
Survey is called the “Congregation Assessment Tool” or CAT
Used by all parishes in our Diocese of Chicago for new rector searches
Survey will take 25=30 minutes to complete
Most of the questions only require simple multiple choice answers, and there are a few
open ended questions to give participants more room to share personal thoughts
Every “invested and able” person may participate in the survey
o “Invested” means involved in parish life, including participation in religious
services, supporting one or more of the ministries (such as God’s Will Resale
Shop), or making contributions to the parish.
o “Able” means everyone 16 years of age or older with the maturity and
experience to understand the importance of the survey and assessment
process, and who can complete the survey in one sitting.
We need your help … Please ensure the parish office has an accurate email address
and mailing address for each invested and able parishioner.
FOR USE AT SUNDAY SERVICES

The parish office will be doing a reach-out on this matter, and you can help by sending

Once again, the survey will open on September 15, and close on October 11.
We will repeat this information at each Sunday Service before the survey becomes
available.
On behalf of the Search Committee, thank you for your willingness to be a part of the
congregation assessment and for helping to build the future of St. Ignatius of Antioch
