How does Voice of the Faithful intend to succeed?
A. Voice of the Faithful will bring together members, affiliates (geographically based groups of members), working groups (goal- and mission-oriented members), and platform committees (project-oriented members) to pursue efforts that promote our mission and goals. Our national Voice of the Faithful operation will foster growth by providing the resources (learning materials, training programs, communications) needed by our members and affiliates. We will develop and foster a deeper understanding of our faith, of the institutional church, of canon law, and of Vatican II. We will examine and monitor the adequacy of child-protection procedures, the transparency and accountability of our diocesan and parish administrations, and the avenues through which the laity can have meaningful input into the governance and guidance of our Church.
