Parish Pastoral Council

The Diocese of Manchester issued Parish Pastoral Guidelines in July 2002 which gave a new model that focused the work of the Parish Pastoral Councils on MISSION and VISION. Every parish is expected to have a Pastoral Council and a Finance Council which serve in an advisory role with the pastor.

The Pastoral Ministry Office provides resources to assist pastors in their efforts to strengthen and renew the Parish Pastoral Councils in this new model. A link to the Parish Pastoral Councils Guidelines is provided.
