Pastoral Council InformationWhat is a Pastoral Council?
In accordance with Canon 536 of the Code of Canon Law and the directives of the Diocesan Church of Altoona-Johnstown, a Parish Pastoral Council may be established to act as a consultative body and has no vote or authority. In short, the Parish Pastoral Council assists the pastor set goals for the parish and helps the parish achieve those goals. Pastoral Council has 6 standing committees: Liturgy, Education, Social, Christian Service, Maintenance, and Cemetery. Each of these committees helps the pastor manage the mission of the parish in those areas. |
