The pastoral council consists of members of Our Lady of Perpetual Help parish who serve as a consultative body to the pastor. Our duty is to help set direction for the parish by focusing on the parish's mission statement and organizing a plan to carry out that mission. The parish pastoral council encourages communication within the parish, with the community, as well as the archdiocese. Most members are elected, others are appointed by the pastor, and some represent the pastoral staff and key organizations. The council meets on the second Monday of each month, except July and August, at 7:00 p.m. in the parish hall. All parishioners are encouraged and welcome to attend
