Pastoral Council

The purpose of the Pastoral Council is to serve as the primary representative and consultative voice of the parishioners of Blessed Sacrament Parish in dialog and cooperation with the pastor and staff of the parish in order to promote a vibrant and faith-filled parish life.

The Council consists of the pastor, the secretary trustee who serves a 2-year term, and nine at large members who serve staggered 3-year terms (6 elected and 3 appointed). Elections for these positions are held each May and follow a July 1 to June 30 calendar.

If you are interested in serving on Pastoral Council, please contact the Chair by the end of March each year. Meetings are held monthly on the first Wednesday from 7:00 to 8:30 PM in the Parish Center.
