The Parish Pastoral Council exercises shared responsibility for the pastoral life of the parish under the leadership of the pastor. In this context the purpose of the council is to prayerfully engage the people and the pastor in common reflection about the parish’s mission and the ministry, to plan, and to evaluate the Gospel and church teaching. It has four basic responsibilities:

1. to research the needs, ideas, and hopes of the faith community:

2. to encourage and support existing ministries:

3. to evaluate the quality of life of the parish faith community;

4. to plan for the parish’s future by recommending policies, procedures, and programs that will implement its values and fulfill the Church’s mission.
