The Pastoral Council provides guidance to the pastor on pastoral matters. They normally meet on the 2nd Monday of each month at 6:00 PM in the rectory. All members are requested to attend.
This temporary council is partially made up of the members of the Transition Team, a group of people selected by Fr. Joseph and Fr. Ray, charged with the responsibility of guiding the merger of St. Gertrude the Great and St. John the Baptist parishes into the one St. Michael the Archangel parish. Fr. Lance decided that the members of this group will serve on either the Pastoral or Finance/Facilities Council until the time is right for a nomination and election process.
