Parish Pastoral Council
erving a minimum of a 3-year-term in an advisory capacity to the pastor, the Parish Pastoral Council provides visionary leadership to the parish community. They are the “keepers” of the vision, striving to enhance the overall perspective of the parish in terms of its growth and progress. Focusing on collaboration and communication between Parish Pastoral Council members, staff, committees, and ministries, the Parish Pastoral Council monitors and supports progress towards achieving parish goals.

Trustees
Parish Trustees are two lay members of the Parish appointed to serve as members and officers of the Parish corporation. Along with the Archbishop, the Vicar General, and Pastor, the Trustees form The Corporate Board and have the power to transact all business of the corporation.
