The Immaculate Heart of Mary Parish Council serves as a consultative body of the parish whose responsibility is to advise and assist the pastor in matters relating to the parish. This includes promoting lay participation in the activities of the parish, evaluating the goals and needs of the parish, developing and recommending ways to address those needs, and finally developing and maintaining a two-way communication between the Council and the larger Parish community.
The Council meets 10 times during the school year, September to June, and usually on the 3rd Monday of the month at 7:30 PM.
The IHM Parish Council is pleased to announce the newest members of the Council. These Parishioners submitted self-nominations for the four open seats. Since no other formal nominations were received, and with these excellent candidates representing many of the different facets of our Parish, it has been determined there is no need to hold an election.
We welcome Mary Balcom, Katya Drohan, Carolyn Gianelli and Catherine Windels to the Parish Council. They will each serve a three-year term from 2022-2025.
We are also thrilled to announce our two teen representatives, Christina Semple and Paul Windels who will serve a one-year term.
