Parish Council

Parish Council meets on the first Thursday of each month at 8 PM in the Oak Room of the Parish Center. Individual Committees are to meet ahead of those meetings and send their Chair and Co-Chair as representatives and voting members of Parish Council. Committee Members are asked to serve for 2-year commitments on a rotating basis. Parish Council is an integral part of our parish life and structure, providing advisement for our Pastor and bringing the needs of our parishioners to the table. Parish Council Meetings are open to any parishioners.
