The Parish Council (Council) serves as a consultative body to the pastor to promote the spiritual growth of the faith community. The Council is comprised of the pastor, one representative from each of the four parish life commissions and appointed members.  The Council meets monthly August through May.  Positions will be filled by discernment held in September of 2021.

• Worship creates an environment of communal prayer at every liturgy and parish activity.
• Formation brings the fullness of the Catholic Faith to children and adults and inspires how we live and learn and grow into a deeper relationship with Christ.
• Outreach promotes care for others and justice in our parish, local and global communities as the hands, feet and heart of Christ.
• Evangelization welcomes everyone in Hospitality, personal relationship and by living as joyful disciples of Jesus.

Members 2022-2023: Fr. Kent O'Connor, Marilyn Breitenstein, Ellie Gast, Millie Hill, Lauren Larson, Linda Mayer, and Mary Mueller (staff liaison)
