The Xavier Pastoral Council seeks three new members to join us beginning in September 2024. All members of the parish community are encouraged to prayerfully consider—in Ignatian language, to discern—whether this might be the time to offer your gifts as a servant leader. Serving in an advisory role to the pastor, the Council collaborates with the Xavier community to set parish goals and develop objectives; empowers parishioners to implement pastoral plans; and oversees and evaluates them in light of fulfillment of the parish mission.
• Pastoral Council members commit to a three-year term of service. At the conclusion of this term, they may serve a subsequent three-year term if they choose to do so. To be eligible, you must be a registered member of the parish for at least two years and be at least 20 years old.
• Additional information is available in the Pastoral Council’s Guidelines for Leadership. Questions may be directed to any Council member or to pastoralcouncil@sfxavier.org. An optional information session for those interested in learning more about service on the Council will be held via Zoom on Monday, April 8th at 7pm.
New Council members will be selected over two parish-wide meetings to be held on Zoom on Sunday April 21st and Sunday May 5th. All parishioners are warmly encouraged to participate in the selection process.
To participate, please join us on Zoom on the following dates:
