Realign Resources for Mission 

Here is the latest news as of December 6, 2022

Update:   

1. The principles of Realign Resources for Mission (RRM) remain unchanged and are being implemented. 

2. The practicalities of Realign Resources for Mission have been amended in some regards. 

3. With the "in solidum" model off the table, Bishop Boyea then amended the configuration of proposed parish groupings. Out went the 21 parish groupings and 3 stand-alone parishes. In came 22 parish groupings eliminating the three stand-alones. 

4. Recognizing the importance of collaboration and accountability, Bishop Boyea then instituted a newly revised vicariate – or deanery – structure within the Diocese of Lansing.

5. The names of the newly appointed deans will be announced in Spring 2023. The selection process is still ongoing. Stay tuned. 

4.  We are rebranding the implementation process from "Realign Resources for Mission" to "Made for Mission".
