Serving with Faith and Unity
Who We Are

Members come from all walks of life — what unites them is their love for the Church and their desire to see it flourish in faith and fellowship. The council fosters collaboration, transparency, and pastoral care so that our parish remains strong, welcoming, and united in purpose.
