"Building Up St. Michaels"

Our Parish Council exercises shared responsibility for the pastoral life of the parish under the leadership of the pastor. In this context the purpose of the council is to prayerfully engage the people and the pastor in common reflection about the parish’s mission and the ministry, to plan, and to evaluate in light of the Gospel and church teaching. The group's primary focus areas are to: research the needs, the ideas and the hopes of our faith community; to encourage and support existing ministries; to evaluate the quality of life of the parish faith community; and to plan for the parish’s future by recommending policies, procedures, and programs that will implement its values and fulfill the Church’s mission.
