The Parish Council works with 6 Ministry Councils:
Discipleship & Parish Life

Each Ministry Council is comprised of six to ten parish leaders and one staff liaison. These Ministry Councils, are charged with implementing the vision and goals of the parish for their respective area of ministry. They will be the link between the work of the various committees under their purview and the Parish Council.
All parish ministries, through their respective Ministry Council, will be guided by the same set of mission, values and goals. Additionally their plans and needs are shared with all parish leadership at the monthly Leadership Night meeting where members of the six Ministry Councils and the Parish Council gather for a meal, hear insights from Fr. Dan on the state and future of the parish, and share cross-ministry information before attending their own meetings. The consolidation of meetings into one night is intended to create a leadership culture centered on transparent, predictable communication and a longer-term, more visionary look at the parish.
