Home Pastoral Services Parish Council
Parish Council
 
Mission - to promote at all levels of parish life a sense of the Parish Vision Statement and Mission Statement.
 

St Benedict’s Parish strives to operate under a collaborative style of organisation. This recognises that all members have a part to play in the effective pastoral and administrative functioning of the parish.

 
The Parish Council operates in conjunction with the Parish Priest in overseeing the pastoral affairs of the parish. It seeks to ensure that the parish always works to promote the mission of Jesus Christ in the world.
 
It does this by:
  • undertaking, in line with our Mission Statement, future planning over the next year and beyond, to provide direction to all levels of parish activities. Ensure the plan is carried out and the results evaluated
  • providing co-ordination, support and encouragement among the various committees and groups operating in the Parish
  • providing a forum for parishioners' concerns and views to be aired and generation of an appropriate response
 
The Parish Council co-operates with the Finance and Liturgy Committees to promote specific aspects of parish life.
 
The Parish Council meets on the third Tuesday of each month at 7:30 pm.
