The
Parish Council Consists of 12
elected members and the Priest.
The Priest shall not have a vote.
The Council is responsible to the
General Assembly for the conduct
of all Parish affairs.
The Parish Council is a body of
practicing Orthodox Christians
sacramentally in good standing
with the Church. They are elected
by the members of our Parish for
the purpose of working together
with the priest in fulfilling the
goals and needs of the
Parish.
This
brief description of a local
governing body also reflects the
fundamental structure of the
Orthodox Church. That is, we, as
clergy and laity together, are the
"People of God" seeking
to the best of our human
capabilities to fulfill the
mission entrusted to us by our
Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
They visit the sick, assist the
needy and help the Parish in many
ways. They meet monthly - first
Tuesday of each month. Service is
its own reward for these dedicated
workers of the Lord.
