Our Parish Council

Our Role as a parish council is to reflect on and plan for the future direction of the parish in the light of the Gospel. We are there to
support, enable and co-ordinate parish activities, as necessary which enable the parish community to thrive and grow in their love and understanding of our Lord Jesus Christ. We want to embrace and celebrate the gifts of our parishioners and encourage all to participate in the life of the parish together as one community. We also engage ecumenically with our neighbouring faith communities
