Pastoral Council
The Council is a vehicle for the parish members to share in the pastoral mission of Jesus Christ and the Church in a specific location in the Archdiocese. It does this by developing Catholic identity, promoting evangelization, and fostering stewardship.
The Council strives to build a community of disciples who recognize their baptismal calls to lives of holiness, witness,
and service.
The Council engages in a continual process of pastoral planning, which takes into account the needs and priorities of its parishioners, the Archdiocese, the broader community, and the world.
This council is responsible for all standing commissions of St. Gabriel Parish, and all standing commissions of St. Gabriel Parish are accountable to the Pastoral Council.
St. Gabriel Pastoral Council members are discerned by the parish each spring, and council members serve a three-year term. Nominations occur in the Spring.
YOUR GIFT OF TIME: one monthly meeting, 1 hour each in length, special projects as needed.
