Reasons for Recommended Changes

This change was recommended in response to desires expressed by the people of God to reduce the size of the family containing Pope St. John XXIII due to it having undergone major significant change recently, either by moving Sacred Heart and/or Our Lady Queen of Heaven into another family. Sacred Heart was moved to the family with All Saints and St. Martin of Tours due to proximity and the ability for Sacred Heart to maintain access to a school within their parish family. Our Lady Queen of Heaven was not moved due to geographical challenges and the desire for Our Lady Queen of Heaven to maintain access to the Pope St. John XXIII STEM Academy within its family.
