The Pastoral Council serves as a consultative body to the Pastor in developing and implementing the vision and mission of the parish. The council is responsible for developing a pastoral plan in collaboration with the Pastor, the parish staff and the parish community and encouraging and supporting the parish community in fulfilling its mission. Each year, parishioners are asked to consider this leadership position for themselves or another member of the community.
