" We are one family in Christ with a welcoming heart called to serve "

The Saint Mary Magdalene Pastoral Council is accepting nominations to serve a three-year term, beginning in January 2021.   
 
The primary purpose of the Pastoral Council is to be a consultative body to assist our Pastor in ministering to the spiritual needs of the faith community that is Saint Mary Magdalene Catholic Church.  Pastoral Council meets with the Pastor once a month, to prayerfully reflect on the pastoral needs of the Parish.  Members of the Pastoral Council strive to represent the spiritual needs and hopes of every member of our Parish.  Ideally, the process entails prayer, study, dialogue, discernment, consensus and the guidance of the Holy Spirit during and between meetings.

• In full communion with the Catholic Church
• Registered in the Parish for a minimum of two years
• Committed to Spiritual Growth
• Willing to commit themselves to skills development as part of the Christian leadership process
