This commission initiates and coordinates the Parish
Council's ministry of helping individual parishioners and the parish in
general to grow in faith. It is also responsible for the areas of
social and justice concerns, to help the elderly, the homeless, the
hungry, the forgotten, the victims of discrimination. It gives
special attention to how the community welcomes people, how it reaches
out to the inactive, and how the parish provides for building community
spirit.
Members include: Diane Begle, Barb Gehlhausen,
Mary Jo Holmes, Heather Laake, Linda Maxey, and Deanna Youngs
