Staff and Parish Structure

Finance Committee

The Finance Committee promotes stewardship as a way of life to ensure that parish resources are used in accordance with the principles of stewardship and to secure the financial stability of the parish for future generations.

People who practice good stewardship are needed to show interest in serving on the finance committee. This small group is responsible for allocation of parish funds and budgets. It meets monthly and more frequently as needed at special times of the year. Finance Committee members serve three-year terms.

Parish Pastoral Council

The parish pastoral council is responsible for working with the pastor in carrying out the mission of the parish. To that end, council members assist in planning, overseeing, coordinating, and communicating. The pastoral council is a consultative body, presided over by the pastor, and works together by the principle of consensus, while allowing for the discretion of the pastor.

The parish pastoral council consists of the following individuals:

• Pastor
• Chairperson
• Vice Chairperson *
• Secretary
• Seven Commissioners:
• Parish Operations
• Stewardship
• Parish and Family Life
• Education
• Communication
• Worship and Spiritual Life
• Evangelization and Outreach
• One At-Large Member

* The vice chairperson serves a dual role, as both vice chair and either as a commissioner or at-large member. Therefore, the entire number of pastoral council members is eleven.

Each commissioner is responsible for acting as a liaison to the organizations and ministries that comprise his or her commission. This involves frequent communication with leaders of the organizations, and possible attendance as needed at organization meetings. One of the commissioner's functions is to help facilitate parishioners' stewardship of time and talent by insuring that the various committees, programs, ministries and apostolates under their care have proper support and leadership. The at-large council member is responsible for any ad hoc duties assigned as they arise. The education commissioner automatically serves as a member of the Resurrection Catholic School Advisory Council. The stewardship commissioner automatically serves as a member of the Stewardship Committee.

Pastoral council members serve a term of three years. Any parishioner who practices good stewardship is eligible to be a pastoral council member.
