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 mission and the ministry, to plan, and to evaluate in light of the Gospel and Church teachings.
It therefore has four basic responsibilities:
a. To reach the needs, the ideas and the hopes of the faith community;
b. To encourage and support existing ministries;
c. To evaluate the quality of life of the parish faith community;
d. To plan for the parish's future by recommending policies, procedures, and programs that will implement its values and fulfill the Church's Mission.
The mission of St. Michael Parish is to share the Good News of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. We strive to facilitate a real encounter with Christ through the Sacraments, discipleship, evangelization and outreach to all those we meet. We seek to continue our faith through youth catechesis, family formation, and community development.
