We the people of God, at Saint Patrick, recognize our calling and responsibility received through Baptism, Confirmation and the Eucharist, to proclaim the Good News of Jesus Christ in union with the entire Church and to grow in personal relationship with God; Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
The Pastoral Council will be the preeminent consultative body to the Pastor as he makes decisions for the spiritual and temporal growth of the parish community.
Responsibility for this mission will be through a shared and collaborative ministry utilizing the God-given gifts and talents of parish members.
The Pastoral Council is the consultative body to the Pastor in making decisions for the pastoral mission and spiritual growth of the parish community. It is comprised of parish members committed to fostering the Christian growth of their community. The Council's chief focus is on the future, helping the pastor to clarify a vision and crystallize a
pastoral plan for the parish.
The key responsibilities include assessing the needs of the community and the mission of the church. In addition, the Council has the following standing commissions: Faith Formation, Evangelization, Liturgy/Worship, Social, Community Affairs, Pastoral Care
