The Pastoral Council meets every fourth Thursday in the parish center during the months of September through May.
The Council is a consultative body, pastoral in nature, because it strives to discern the movement of the Holy Spirit among God's people in the parish. The Council gives its help to the Pastor in fostering pastoral activity; it investigates, under the authority of the Pastor, all those things which pertain to pastoral works to ponder them, and to propose practical conclusions about them. It is essential the Council meetings occur in the context of prayer and openness to the Holy Spirit, so that at all times the common good will prevail.
Specifically, the Council's purpose is to enhance the process of:
Father Raymond Smialowski, Pastor
Cathy Galvin
Charles Haddad - Secretary
Sophia Winiarski
Lisa Melninkaitis - Vice-Chairperson
Debra Boyle
Teresa Burkard
Bernadette Violette
Francine Walko
Bernice Wright
Youth Representative
Jeffrey Boyle
