Parish Pastoral Council
The people of the Diocese have, through both the workings of the Diocesan Pastoral Council and the Diocese-wide consultation and with the full support of Bishop Declan, suggested that each parish should establish its own Pastoral Council. The main purposes of this Council are:
- To support the Parish Priests in their ministries to the people of the parish
- To enable the laity to take on a more active role in parish life.
Fr Michael & Fr Leo have set in motion the process of establishing such a Council in this parish and a core group, representing our worshipping community, was asked to put forward proposals for consideration by all parishioners. The group was specifically charged with drafting a suggested mission statement and a process for electing the members of the Parish Council.
