Organizations The Parish Council is made up of the pastor, deacons, and religious, along with elected lay members of the parish, serving as the pastor's advisory body. They function to organize, promote, and coordinate apostolic activity within the goals of the parish, the diocese, and the Universal Church. They set priorities, establish goals, and policies to meet those needs. The Parish Council meets monthly, with the agenda, minutes and schedule published in the Sunday Bulletin.
Meetings are open to all members of the parish and parishioners are encouraged to attend.
The Parish Council Commissions are the major working bodies of the Council. They operate to carry out the work of the Council. Membership on these commissions and their committees, boards, and organizations are open to members of the parish. This commission plans all liturgical celebrations and coordinates all phases of the liturgy. To serve on this commission one must have knowledge of the liturgy or be willing to learn, have a special interest, and be willing to serve on committees.
