ST. HENRY PASTORAL COUNCIL
St. Henry Pastoral Council was established in March, 1983. The Council consists of seven members-at-large elected from the general parish membership, the Pastor, two trustees
and a representative from each of the five organizations.
The Council seeks to implement the mission statement of the parish. It has the responsibility to act in a leadership role to advise and assist the Pastor in activities of the parish. Its purpose is to recognize the spiritual and temporal needs of the parish, to discuss the means available, and provide the services required to meet those needs. It also provides channels of communication between the Pastor and laity of St. Henry Parish. The council meets the 4th Monday of every month at 7:00 PM. The Parish Council is served by six committees:
Administrative Committee
Building and Grounds Committee
Faith Formation and Religious Education Committee
The Parish Life Committee
Social Justice and Peace Committee
Worship and Spiritual Life Committee
and five organizations:
Communication Committee
Creative Learning Center, Board of Directors
Ladies Club
Men’s Club
Stewardship
Finance Council
The Finance Council provides oversight of Parish financial activities. Its principal efforts are focused on budget development, monitoring actual expenditures, and submission of financial statements to parishioners. The Committee responsibilities also include conducting fundraising activities when necessary and developing means that encourage the practice of stewardship.
