We have three openings on the Parish Pastoral Council, for the Education, Social Justice and the Liturgy Commission.  Each term is for two years.

The Education Commission handles all adult and young adult education in the parish.  They meet the first Thursday of even months.  The Liturgy Commission handles everything to do with having a Mass, from Eucharist ministers, servers, ushers, to sacristan.  They meet the first Friday of even months.  Social Justice encompasses the Rosary Makers, Shawl Ministry, Respect Life, Helping Hands, community assistance and charitable giving.  They meet the fourth Wednesday of odd months.

Elections for our Pastoral Council will be held in November.  We would like to have at least two candidates for each position.  As a Pastoral Council representative, you are the liaison between your Commission and the Council.  You would be expected to attend the Commission and the Council meetings.  The council meets on the third Friday of even months.

I can speak from experience, and say that being on the Council and a part of a Commission has given me a deeper understanding of our parish and its activities, along with getting to know many more people within the parish.  The time commitment is not overwhelming.

We can't continue to ask the same people to support our parish.  It is time for some new people to step up and help out.  Please give this prayerful consideration.  Please contact me at 844-7656 or This email address is being protected from spambots.
