LOOKING FOR NEW MEMBERS FOR PASTORAL COUNCIL

Consider serving on the Blessed Sacrament Pastoral Council!  It is a valuable service to your parish and very rewarding for you.  In April and May all parishioners can nominate themselves or another parishioner to serve on Pastoral Council
 
Your involvement is so necessary and important:

• Work with parishioners and parish staff to discover the vision for the future of the parish.
• Help develop policies that support the mission of the parish.
• Help in any way possible to make the parish effective in the lives of the parishioners.
• Be fully informed about the affairs of the parish.
• Help Fr. Mark Payne in the decision process by offering advice and wisdom in order to arrive at what is best for the parish.
• Attend monthly Pastoral Council meetings, held 10 months of the year.
• Serve as a liaison to one of the standing committees.

• Attend the committee’s meetings (frequency of meeting varies by committee).
• Engage in goal setting with the committee to promote the parish mission and make the parish vision a reality.
• Participate in a yearly parish council/staff retreat, usually scheduled in mid to late fall.
• Be open to the power of prayer and the working of the Holy Spirit.

Your Council term would be 3 years (September, 2018 through June, 2021).
 
Please prayerfully consider the call to parish ministry and come forward to serve.  Complete a nomination form (found on tables near the church entrances, on the parish website, and below) and drop it in the collection basket or the Parish Office.  Nominations are being accepted now through mid-May.
