The purpose of the council is to help the pastor by making known
the vision, hopes, dreams, fears and concerns of the parish. They
are an idea generators and assist the pastor in putting a vision
together for the future of the parish.

If you have anything you would like discussed, you may approach
any of the members or myself and let us know.

Please keep in mind that the council acts as an advisor only and
do not vote. It is the role of the pastor to make decisions. For this
reason votes are not taken. I know other priests let their councils
vote, but I believe that this leads to winners and losers and so
creates division. If you are happy or upset with a decision, let it be
with me and not with each other.

We keep in mind that like any group, with one issue we get our
preference and with another issue, we do not. It is a matter of
being patient and loving with each other, and I would add, with
your pastor who tries to take the best advise he receives and to
make the best decision for the group, under the guidance of the
Holy Spirit, knowing that some will like it and others will not.
