PASTORAL COUNCIL NOMINATIONS SEPTEMBER 12 AND 19 after Sunday Masses
Four Stewards: Because elections were postponed the past two springs due to COVID-19 concerns, there will be two stewards chosen for 1.5-year terms (ending May 2023) and two stewards chosen for 2.5-year terms (ending May 2024).
Four Standing Committee Representatives: There will also be nominations taken to represent four of the standing committees. Nominations for Christian Formation Committee and Liturgy Committee representatives will be for 1.5-years terms, and nominations for Social Concerns Committee and Parish Life Committee representatives will be for 2.5-year terms. Standing committee nominees should be parishioners who are actively involved with the committee they would represent.
Elections are planned for Sunday Masses on October 17 and 24 with the new Pastoral Council term starting in November. More detailed information and nominations forms will be available in the Gathering Space at the Pastoral Council Nominations Table in September. Self nominations are strongly encouraged.
Please consider this opportunity to become a member of Pastoral Council which provides support and advice to our Pastor to " . . . identify pastoral needs in the parish, help him plan pastoral programs and improve pastoral services . . ." (from Pastoral Council Bylaws).
This provides a great service to Resurrection Parish which has been blessed by substantial parishioner involvement from its beginning. In addition to helping the parish become a more vibrant Christian community, participation on Council provides a better understanding of how the parish achieves its goals and affords the opportunity to meet and serve with other parishioners.
All parishioners, including those with previous service on Pastoral Council, are invited to consider this need. If you are interested in learning more and possibly becoming involved, please contact Sharon Gidumal ([email protected]) or Dick Schwer ([email protected]).
[If anyone would like to view the next Pastoral Council meeting on September 7 at 6:30 pm by Zoom, please contact Sharon.] There are also minutes from previous Council meetings available at the Parish website. Job Descriptions
