 * 1) Project Title: Establishing a Parish Facebook Page

 * 4) Audience Description: Parish staff; parish members; interested persons who want to find out about our parish.
 * 5) Projected Timeline: By October 1, talk to all staff members about the proposal and answer any objectionsBy October 8, establish norms of usage, review diocesan guidelinesBy October 15, recruit those to publish regularly and set a schedule of minimum new input. That is, anyone authorized can input anytime, but those recruited will have a set time period each month in which they agree to post regularly.
 * 6) Technology to be utilized: Facebook, YouTube and other sites with pertinent links.
 * 7) Projected budget: no money needed at this time
 * 8) Department and/or Administrator approval: yes to be accomplished by October 1. We have already talked about this in principle and are committed as a staff to improve our parish website to be more user friendly and timely.
