The role of the Pastoral Council is to assist the Administrator with building relationships in the grouping and eventually participating in the final consultation process for the merger (Diocesan Blueprint). There are currently 12 members, consisting of three members from each of our four parishes.
The commitment for Pastoral Council is one year.
Finance Council
Each parish will have their own separate Finance Council. This is due to parishes still being separate entities entrusted with overseeing their own finances. Finance Councils are to assist the Administrator in overseeing and controlling the finances of the parish. They also will eventually support the Administrator in planning the final consultation process for the merger. (St. Angela has six members, Corpus Christi and St. Patrick have four members, and St. Robert Bellarmine has three members).
