The Pastoral Council is the primary advisory body of our parish. The council is comprised of eight elected members and the members of the Pastoral Staff. These join with the pastor to identify the pastoral needs of the parish, develop priorities, and plan for the services or programs needed to serve the needs of the parish. The council also establishes commissions, committees or task forces as needed to assist in the fulfillment of particular plans or ongoing services needed by the parish. The elected members of the council are chosen by general ballot and serve for a term of two years.
All parishioners are welcome to attend all meetings.
New members are chosen annually by the council. This group reviews the monthly income and expense reports, conducts informal audits, assists in the preparation of the budget, organizes and directs the annual stewardship program, and makes recommendations concerning all major financial decisions.
