Old Business:
Stewardship:
It was decided that the Pastoral Council will serve as the Stewardship Committee during 2014.
Fr. Warren distributed the Stewardship Manual from the Diocese. He asked that the members of Pastoral Council review the manual, especially pages 13 thru 15 on the Stewardship Council prior to the January meeting. He also suggested that the Pastoral Council review other information on the website regarding stewardship.
The Council discussed ways to present the idea of stewardship to the parish incorporating the four pillars of stewardship. This will be further discussed at future meetings.
Triangle behind the Altar:
The holes behind the altar have been fixed with some additional cosmetic finishing being completed by Bruce Kozlowski. Fr. Warren will send a note of thanks to him for the excellent work.
New Business:
December Meeting:
It was the consensus of the Council that there will be no Pastoral Council meeting in December.
Update on Parish Projects:
Fr. Warren reported that work has begun on the restrooms to make them handicapped accessible.
Trees have been planted around the church.
There are also plans to refurbish the cry room to make it more user friendly for those who use it.
The next Pastoral Council meeting will be held on Thursday, January 16, 2014 at 6:30 p.m.
The meeting adjourned at 7:30 pm after a closing prayer.
