Each member of the Council shares his/her gifts to plan and carry out the Will of God for the parish now and into the future.
The Pastoral Council is consultative to and works in partnership with the Pastor with the common goal of shepherding God's people.
The Pastoral Council is composed of the Pastor, nine members (each serving a 3 year term) and the Secretary Lay Trustee (elected by the parish to serve a two year term).
