Parish Council
Purpose: The pastoral council is the pastoral leader's consult council so that he may benefit from the council's work of study, reflection, and recommendation. The pastoral council is to investigate pastoral matters both physical and spiritual, consider them thoroughly, and propose practical conclusions about them. In dialog, the council and the pastoral leader come to an understanding of the physical as well as spiritual concerns and needs of the people of the parish and broader community. The council, along with staff, assists the pastoral leader in the development of parish goals and priorities. After the pastoral leader has accepted the recommendations of the council, he directs their implementation.
Chairperson: Barb Rueckl
