The Lumen Model

A Parish Health Framework Rooted in Mission

The Lumen Model is more than a dashboard—it’s a comprehensive framework designed to help parishes measure, manage, and grow in alignment with their spiritual mission and pastoral reality.

Built specifically for Catholic parishes and dioceses, the Lumen Model Scorecard goes beyond finances to assess key areas of parish health and sustainability—providing leaders with clarity, focus, and a path forward.

Why It Matters

Many parishes struggle not because of a lack of faith—but because they lack a clear way to assess where they are, where they’re going, and how to get there.

The Lumen Model empowers pastors and parish leaders to:

• See the full picture of parish life—spiritually and structurally
  
  

• Prioritize what matters most, based on real-time data and community feedback
  
  

• Track progress over time, with metrics aligned to pastoral planning, budgeting cycles, and mission impact
