Parish Pastoral Council Elections (Karen M.)
Since we had exactly two candidates nominated for election to Pastoral Council and they were both deemed to be qualified and suitable, we agreed to dispense with the election and recommended that they be appointed as members of the PPC by Fr. Dan, which he agreed to do. The two new members are Melissa Slone and Albert Negron. They will be contacted by Karen M. and be invited to attend the next meeting. They will replace Karen M. and Phil H.. Future “Shared Parishes” Workshops
We agreed as a Pastoral Council to promote and attend future events sponsored by our parish aimed at improving the sense of unity among varied constituent groups of our parishioners. This is specifically directed at our support of a follow-up to our “Shared Parishes” workshop.
Next PPC Meeting
Because of a retreat for diocesan priests which will take place on the last week of October, we agreed to change the date of our next meeting. It is now scheduled for Tuesday, October 21st, 2014 at 7:00 pm in the Media Center of the Education Life Center.
Closing prayer and adjournment
A prayer was included as part of the conclusion of the “Shared Parishes” workshop and we adjourned at 9:00 pm.
