  • PARISH ADVISORY COUNCIL

    MEMBERSHIP
    In order to achieve a high degree of diversity on the Parish Council while preserving the Council's manageability, the Council consists of no fewer than 15 members and no more than 21 members.

    In order to promote diversity and maximum lay participation while also benefiting from member experience, Parish Council members should serve 3-year terms, and no member should serve more than 1 term consecutively. One third of the Parish Council's membership should rotate off the Council every year.

    The Parish Council annually adopts a formal Program for developing its member's advisory skills, including such elements as an annual strategic work session, recirculating pertinent periodicals and books, and assigning senior Council Members to serve as mentors to new members.

     
    ROLES
    The Executive Committee, which is headed by the Board Chair and consists of the Vice Chairs and standing committee chairs, is responsible for developing Council meeting agendas, keeping the profile of the desired Council composition updated, identifying candidates to fill vacant seats on the Council, coordinating the work of the other 10 standing committees, and monitoring Council Performance.

    If you would like to be considered for an appointment to the council, contact the Chair or the Pastor.

     
    STRUCTURE
    The Council should annually elect 2 officers for one-year terms: the Chair - who is responsible for chairing the Executive Committee, appointing the members and chairs of the other standing committees, and for chairing Council meetings - and the Vice Chair/s, who serves as Chair in the elected Chair's absence.
