What is the Parish Captain Program?

If you are concerned that there may be one already... email [email protected] and we'll check. Many hands make light work!

Bulletin Announcements
Know your parish’s process and timing for submitting bulletin announcements well before they are to begin. Suggested dates for bulletin announcements are in your Parish Captain’s timetable and on the bulletin announcements themselves. Meet with the appropriate person to schedule dates for bulletin announcements for Men’s Conference per the schedule in promotion timetable document. See the promotional information page. Here are examples of prior letters of the Bishops.
