Request and pay in one step
Today: the request form is on this site and the payment on another, and staff match the two by hand. Here the office sees one record, paid, ready to schedule. (Offering amounts are placeholders.)
Classes second Wednesday
Spanish 6 pm, English 7 pm. Request a baptism and the class date in one form; the family record is updated for you.
Start with one form
The liturgical events coordinator gets the request, the date goes on the calendar, and the family hears back by email or text.
Certificates and letters
Sacramental records and the letter of good standing for godparents, requested online and tracked to "sent".
Register and pay in one place
Today: free sign-ups are website forms and paid ones are ParishSOFT forms, so staff re-key between them. Here every registration lands on the family record, paid or not.
Pick your hour
Grey hours are covered. Tap an open hour to sign up; reminders and substitute requests come by text or email.
Replaces AdorationPro ($65 a month published).
Every event in one place, on your phone
| When | What |
|---|---|
| Every Tue 6 pm | Youth night |
| Every Thu 6 pm | Adult formation |
| 2nd & 4th Wed noon | Catholic Charities food truck |
| 3rd Mon noon | Anointing Mass |
| 3rd Wed 7 pm | Night of Grace (confession) |
The site has no calendar today; events are home-page tiles and the bulletin.
Register your family
One family record holds registration, giving, ministries, sacraments and email/text choices. Today those are three systems: the website form, ParishSOFT and Flocknote.
The GSD Squad: the parish volunteer crew
Skills, tools and time matched to parish projects. Each ministry gets its own section of the parish site, its own people list and its own email and text, all inside the parish platform.
Who can do what
Painting, carpentry, electrical, plumbing, tile, landscaping, general help, rated 1 to 5. "Who can do tile?" is one tap.
Jobs with a plan
Each job has a lead, tasks, volunteer slots and photos, from a playbook.
Notes to the crew
Email the crew from a parish address, with an unsubscribe in every note; texts only to those who said yes.
Live today at gsd-squad.netlify.app (sign-in for the organizer). On the parish platform it would be stpatrickdallas.org/gsd.
One giving page
Today the Give page says giving moved to ParishSOFT, but its main button still goes to the old Faith Direct link. Here every gift lands on the family's giving statement and in the parish books.
One parish platform instead of six systems
| Today | On KCS |
|---|---|
| Diocesan website (build from about $4,000; yearly fee not published), Gravity Forms | The parish site, forms and calendar, edited by staff |
| ParishSOFT Giving and forms (outside estimates about $100–200 a month for the suite, plus card fees) | Giving, paid registrations and intentions on the family record; card fees through Square |
| Flocknote (priced by size; likely a few hundred dollars a month) | Email and text with approvals; the Diocese requires Flocknote today, so start by syncing to it |
| AdorationPro ($65 a month) | Adoration sign-ups and reminders |
| Separate family lists in three systems | One family record |
| No events calendar; Spanish by machine translation | A calendar on every phone; real Spanish pages |
Fixes found on the current site
The footer Mass Times link is broken on every page; two Mass Times pages to keep in step; the bulletin email sign-up goes to a parish in Michigan; the Advent Mission 2026 tile opens the 2025 page; two empty menu pages; deadlines from the summer still shown; 3,200 families on one page and 2,000 on another.
Keep: VIRTUS (Diocese requires it) and the ad-supported bulletin (check with Diocesan before changing the website). Prices are vendors' published rates or outside estimates; the parish's actual costs are not known.
