Our Team
The Pastoral Leadership Team of our two parishes serves as one body, grounded in the Gospel and dedicated to the shared mission of our parish communities. Together, we accompany parishioners in every dimension of parish life: spiritual, sacramental, pastoral, administrative, and operational. Our work seeks to connect ministry and mission in service to Christ and the people entrusted to our care.
We strive to embody a spirit of welcome, competence, and collaboration across both parishes, so that every encounter — whether in worship, conversation, or administrative support — reflects Christ’s presence and the unity of our community.
As a unified team, we coordinate and support the many ministries of our parishes. Each member brings particular gifts and responsibilities, while consultants and collaborators offer specialized expertise in areas such as communications, technology, and operations — all in service of one shared mission.
