Parish Council
The Code of Canon Law provides for the establishment of a Parish Council to assist the Pastor in planning, coordinating, guiding, and directing all aspects of parish life. In the Diocese of Bridgeport, each parish is required by law to have a Parish Pastoral Council, as per the decree promulgated on June 29, 2019.
While separate from the Parish Finance Council, each having a different and specific role in the life and operation of the parish, the two councils must work together for the good of the parish.
