PARISH PASTORAL COUNCIL
The Parish Pastoral Council is a group of people, chosen from and by the parish community, who together with the parish priest(s) guide, i.e. determine the direction of the parish, oversee its pastoral activity and temporal affairs, as the community attempts to fulfill the mission of the church.
The Parish Pastoral Council is a consultative body. As such, it exists as a wisdom group commissioned to discern, proclaim, and make visible the presence and action of the spirit within the community. By its very nature, it is to provide counsel. (Reprinted from Archdiocese Parish Council Manual).
Parish Council meets on the third Tuesday of each month at 6:30 PM in the Gathering Space.
