The Pastoral Council is composed of members elected by the parishioners and appointed by our pastor, Fr. Jack, and our pastor emeritus, Fr. Burke. The group is a gathering of Christians called together from diverse backgrounds, who together with our pastor, share the responsibility for the spiritual growth and material welfare of the parish community. It is the role of the people of God: pastor, pastoral staff, and laity to ponder our communal life in light of the Gospel, to support and encourage our parish family in the discovery of Jesus, and to minister in life and justice to all God's people. Meetings are held bi-monthly from September to May.
Please reach out if you'd like any more information, either about volunteering with the Pastoral Council, or just finding a ministry that might be a good fit for you! And feel free to reach out to any of the below members for information on their committee or interests!
