New Website - Content
Good afternoon Chris,
As I said over the phone, I am Veronica and I am the content specialist on your site. So far, I have done my best to fill out your site using your bulletin and the document you sent us September 22, 2017, but am now left with some things that I will need from you.
Most of these things we have discussed over the phone, but if there is something you need more information about, please do not hesitate to call and ask:
- Parish Registration Forms
- Your Calendar (Google Calendar if possible)
- Saint Jerome's Mission Statement
- Connections Page
What are you looking to put on the Connections page?
Since we already have the quick links in the footer (bottom), I don't see the need for a page. We can remove the page, or add a photo gallery in it's place. Another option is adding a landing page with photos/mass times/locations/links to St. Philip and St. Joseph Catholic Churches - Homepage "myParish App" section
Are you interested in the myParish App (free to bulletin users) or did you want to replace this with a "A Word from Father" with Father Ankley's
Feel free to look around the site (click here) now that things are filling out.
While you look around, please take note that we are still working on:
- Centering Images (Ministries page)
- Maximum Image Size (Outreach Ministries, Liturgical Ministries, Sacraments pages)
- Contact Page links ("I'm New Here" and "Current Parishioners" buttons)
- QuickLinks being connected to actual sites
Also, I asked Sam about the Dropbox and it looks as though you may need to create an account in order to access/add to it. BUT, we did share it with the stjeromechurch22@aol.com email.
I look forward to hearing back from you and I hope you had a safe drive today/Friday!

Hello Chris,
Just checking in to see how things are progressing on the things I had asked about. In case you no longer have that email, here is what I need in order to complete the site:
- Parish Registration Forms (so that I can turn them into online forms)
- Your Calendar (Google Calendar, if possible)
- Parish Mission Statement
- Connections Page

Let me know what you had in mind for this area.

Hi Veronica,
So sorry for not getting back to you.
I had to complete Lenten luncheon schedule & get guest speakers for them.
Hopefully, things will settle down now.
I will get going on your requests.
Thanks for understanding,
Chris J.

Chris,
No worries. It's funny that you should mention the Lenten luncheon because I was just telling my coworker how it's always so sad when parishes have meetings and events during the day. It's always the cool things that I miss out on because of work!
I did see that there will be a "Fr. John's Lenten Lecture Series" at St. Philip. I think I may leave work early to drive over and participate in one. The best part of working with so many parishes is that I get to see all the cool things they have going on and participate.
Anyways, if you have any questions with the items on the list, simply let me know. Again, here is the link to the development site: http://stjeromebc.diocesanweb.com/

Good Afternoon Chris,
I know you had previously said that there is a Parish Pastoral Council meeting coming up, you may want to ask them about the following:
- Parish Mission Statement
Do you currently have one, or want to create one? - Online Registration forms
Would you like an online version on the website?
Thanks so much and I hope you and your family are doing well!

Hi Veronica,
I have been working on a Parish Mission Statement and plan on presenting it at the meeting for approval.
Yes, would like an online registration form & have been working on that also.
Did you get the pictures that I put in dropbox?
I plan on calling you tomorrow.
Thanks,
Chris J.

Hi Veronica,
I presented the mission statement at the meeting & asked members to think about it (to see if they wanted to add to it or change it -- no one made any comments).
No, I have not been trained. I will check my schedule for next week & get back to you on Friday.
Thanks,
Chris J.

Good Morning Chris,
I was just wondering how last week's meeting went. I know you had been working on a mission statement. As for the registration form, your bulletin says that you have a registration form that is located in the vestibule on the table outside of the parish office. If you send me a copy of your current form, I can create the online version.
I just want to remind you that your website's content is always editable, so there is no need to prolong your website's launch due to missing content. Any visitor will simply be looking for your Mass times, events, bulletins and contact more than anything. Right now, all they have to go off of is a Google or MassTimes.org search! Any additional information that you, or the council, thinks is necessary may be added any time after the launch.
Also, I wanted to verify that we had not yet had a training with you. Things have been hectic the last couple months, and we do not seem to have a record of training you. If not, was there some time next week that works for you? The training is typically 2 hours long and will cover how to edit the website. I am available any time from 8:00 am - 2:00 pm, EST.
I look forward to hearing back from you,
Veronica AlvaradoWeb Department, Diocesan

Chris,
That works. I realize that it's a long way off. Is this because of the information you are waiting to get back from the council, or is it just what best fits your busy schedule?

Veronica,
I was hoping to hear back from some council members.
I do have questions regarding things that I requested to be on the site (I don't see them or any pictures that were put in dropbox -- not sure how this is to work).

Hello Chris,
I have seen the things you have added to the Dropbox, and have moved the images, but was saving the text for our training. For now, I have gone ahead and added them (ministries).
As for the images, they are uploaded to the website but I have not used it on any of the pages yet. Did you know what pages you wanted them to go on?
Thank you,
Veronica Alvarado
