Parish Pastoral Council
2022-23 Chair: Lynn Middy 941-716-6690
The Parish Pastoral Council is a consultative body consisting of people who represent the entire parish community. It forms a united body with the pastor in discerning how the parish can best carry out the mission of the Church. Working in a spirit of prayerful discernment, dialogue, and consensus building, the council assists the pastor in developing pastoral goals, deliberating on parish issues, and promoting spiritual growth and renewal in the parish. It works with the other existing groups in the parish, who also recommend specific policies and programs to the pastor. Four vacancies routinely open each year.
