The Pastoral Council of Notre Dame of Mount Carmel has been established not as a governing body, but as an advisory forum, to assist the Pastor in decision-making on issues that affect the parish family. The Pastoral Council engages in decision-making by consensus, and ensures that all decisions contribute to the parish’s fulfillment of its overall mission. It is always in, through, and for the sake of Jesus that the Pastoral Council fulfills its responsibilities.
