Congratulations and thanks to the new members of the St. Anthony Parish Pastoral Council:
We ask God to bless them with wisdom and insight as we seek the ways our parish may become a vessel of God’s Kingdom.
The current members of the pastoral council have just finished their two year commitment and our parish is about to begin the important process of selecting a new council to help guide our community through the next two years. The council is made up of twelve parishioners and the parish staff who try to discern the direction in which God may lead our faith community. We do this through prayer and discussion, meeting three times a year at a local retreat house. In the course of these meetings, patterns begin to emerge and we get a better sense of the goals, hopes and visions for our parish. A prayer/name card will be included in the bulletin next week. We ask all parishioners to prayerfully consider placing their names into a basket which will be placed in the front of the altar on Sunday, May 1, for two weeks. On Sunday, May 15, the Feast of Pentecost, trusting in the Holy Spirit, we will draw from the basket the twelve names of the new pastoral council. In the weeks to come, please consider this important ministry.
The Pastoral Council of St. Anthony Parish along with the parish staff will meet for a day of prayer, reflection and discussion on Saturday, January 31. Please keep them in your prayers as they seek to discern and understand the directions in which God’s Spirit may be leading our parish. If you have any ideas, inspirations, issues or concerns that you would like a council member to bring up to the group, please feel free to contact any of them. Their names are listed here; email addresses and phone may be found on the parish website or on the bulletin boards a the entrances to the church.
