Dear Brothers and Sisters,
The purpose of the Parish Pastoral Council is to advise the pastor for the growth and betterment of the parish and to assist the pastor in formulating programs and policies. The members of the council should be a praying community and by their example lead the parish to a fuller life of prayer. They should be sensitive to the movement of the Spirit among the people of God in the parish and be truly representative of all members of the parish in their advice. They are to support the pastor in his role as shepherd of the parish. They should foster unity in the parish, encourage full participation of parishioners in parish life, and promote ongoing dialogue among the staff, parishioners, and the various parish organizations.
If you are interested in serving on the Parish Pastoral Council, then please contact Father Shelton, Father Collins or Karen Wilkins-Butz sometime this week. Everyone else, please pray for our potential candidates.
In Christ,
Father Shelton
