Councils

Finance Council

The parish finance council is a consultative body of the Christian faithful established to advise the pastor in matters pertaining to the financial affairs of the parish. Canon 537 (of the Code of Canon Law) mandates a finance council in each parish. The parish finance council is responsible for assisting and advising the parish administration in being accountable and responsible to the people for the temporal affairs of the parish.

MEMBERS: Brenda Messner, Keven Rooney, Carolina Vapore, Alan Veeck, Fred Venneri, Ralph Servati

Pastoral Council

The Parish Pastoral Council’s purpose is stated in Canon 536 (of the Code of Canon Law). The fundamental activity is rooted in an individual and corporate response to the activity of the Good Shepherd. The concern of each member and of the Parish Pastoral Council as a whole is the welfare of the entire parish. This is especially true in regard to community, worship and prayer, service, education, and leadership/administration. The Parish Pastoral Council is the primary consultative body to the Pastor in matters which touch the pastoral life of the entire parish.

MEMBERS: Anthony Grano (President), Sister Mary Elizabeth Brush, Peggy Clayton, Ed Constantine, Jim Crable, Gelsey Delperdo, Marisa DiNunno, Nora Jockers, Pinky Pessy
