Function
The Pastoral Council is made up of parishioners who are elected by their fellow parishioners for a two year term and also representatives of other parish organizations. They serve as an advisory body to help the pastor in recognizing and responding to the various needs of the parish. Sub-committees to deal with particular needs are often created as a result of parish council discussions.
The Parish Council will be holding elections soon to replace three members whose terms have expired. We are looking for volunteers who would be interested in running for these positions. Meetings are held once a month. You would need to contact the church office and provide a short biography along with a picture. These will be displayed in the church Nave before the election.
Questions, Suggestions, Concerns??
If you have questions, would like to make a suggestion, or voice a concern about the parish or parish direction feel free to email the Pastoral Council at pcouncil@sacredheartmanassas.org. Your question, suggestion or concern will be addressed as an agenda item at the very next scheduled Pastoral Council Meeting and responded to appropriately.
