The Pastoral Advisory Council (PAC) is a consultative body, which unites laity and clergy in a community of prayer, leadership, service and pastoral planning. While other groups may focus on a specific area of mission and ministry, the PAC is responsible for determining how the Parish can be most effective in fulfilling its total mission. The Council discerns what needs to be supported, changed or developed to make the Parish more faithful to the call of God.
