Pastoral Council advises the Pastor about the overall mission and well-being of the parish. Listening to the Lord, the pastor, and fellow parish members, Council helps to evaluate parish life and plan for its future. Pastoral Council has a critical lay leadership role at St. Bernadette Parish. Each October, the parish discerns two new members for a three year term; the pastor also appoints one person for a three year term. Meetings are the first Wednesday of each month, 7:00—9:00 pm; parish members are invited to observe.
