The Parish Pastoral Council (PPC) assists the pastor in his leadership role by offering its prayerful advice and guidance. It takes a long-range view of the future needs of the parish and strives to foster unity and a sense of community in the parish. The Council works together with the Pastor to discern the pastoral needs of the parish and ways in which those needs can be addressed.
The PPC is made up of 15 members selected from the parishioners at large,and the pastor can appoint additional members as he sees fit. The pastor and parochial vicar are ex-officio members . Each year five new members are selected for membership on PPC to serve for a 3-year term. In this way 1/3 of the Council changes each year. The selection process happens each Spring. All parishioners who are interested or who are nominated by other parishioners to serve on the Parish Pastoral Council have their names submitted to Fr. Peter during the last two weeks of May. At the Vigil Mass of Pentecost, five names are drawn from all nominees. New Council members will serve for a 3 year term.
