Parish Advisory Boards

The Collaborative Pastoral Council (CPC) assists the Pastor in his leadership role of planning, organizing, initiating, promoting, coordinating and reviewing the evangelization, worship, faith formation and service activities within the parish.

Members advise and provide counsel to the Pastor concerning all areas of parish life. The CPC works to promotes unity and a sense of community in the parish. It collaborates with other councils, commissions and ministries.

• to assist the pastor in rendering an account of the finances of the parish to the local ordinary;
• to assist the pastor in making appropriate reports to the parish at least annually concerning parish revenues and expenditures;
• to assist the pastor by providing counsel, when requested, concerning the general care and administration of parish property and finances;
• to assist the pastor in the preparation of a yearly budget and the ongoing monitoring of the parish's financial situation.
