Councils

The Parish Pastoral Council is a group of dedicated parishioners that meets regularly with the Pastor to support and oversee the various activities at the parish. One such successful initiative includes the First Friday Open Houses. Through conversation, prayer, and leadership, this group of diverse individuals helps the Pastor maintain the life and spirit of St. Augustine Church.

Recently, the Parish Pastoral Council has worked on a Pastoral Plan based on Pope Francis' Joy of the Gospel.

Parish Finance Committee

The Finance Committee meets monthly with the Pastor to review the Parish budget, balancing our income with the cost of maintenance and outreach, while ensuring we have a sustainable plan for the future.

St. Augustine's is dedicated to staying answerable to our parishioners when it comes to the expenditures of the parish. The Parish Finance Committee releases quarterly reports on what funds are coming in and what is being spent. The Spring and Fall reports are comprehensive, and can be accessed on our                E-Giving and Parish Finances page.
