The Pastoral Council serves as a vital consultative body that helps the pastor in guiding the spiritual and pastoral life of the parish. Composed of parishioners who prayerfully discern the needs and hopes of the community, the council works to strengthen the mission of the Church by fostering communication, collaboration, and unity among all members. Rooted in prayer and guided by the Holy Spirit, the council seeks to ensure that every decision reflects Christ’s call to serve and evangelize.

In our Catholic Community of Parishes, the Pastoral Council plays an essential role in shaping our shared vision of faith. By listening attentively to the concerns and inspirations of parishioners, the council helps our parishes grow as welcoming, vibrant, and mission-driven communities. Together with the pastor, they strive to build up the Body of Christ—helping our parishes not only to function, but to flourish as signs of God’s love in the world.
