Parish Pastoral Council

The Church of the Holy Spirit and St. Joseph's have shared a pastor, a parochial vicar and finance director since 2014. We remain two distinct legal entities, two worship sites, and two spiritual homes but we are one Catholic community. We are blending ministries where we can collaborate for the benefit of both communities. This year we focus on Faith Formation K-5, Youth Ministry, Adult Formation, and some administrative functions. While both parish offices are closed to the public due to COVID-19, there is still a pastoral presence at both sites.

Combining our two Pastoral Parish Councils was the first initiative undertaken by the Collaboration Team in 2019. When COVID-19 prevented in-person meetings starting in March 2020, we moved to ZOOM meetings for Council members and ZOOM Town Hall Webinars to keep parishioners of both parishes up to date.

There is a Collaboration Team that meets regularly and includes our Council chair Ned Sayegh, pastor Fr. Jim Schwartz, Deacon Ray Garbach, Deacon Duncan Harris, Cathy Kamp, Marc Magagnoli, Jeanne Mooney and Nancy Veronesi. 

Links to Council and Town Hall Minutes will be promptly posted on this page.

All meetings begin at 7:00PM on Zoom.  Advance registration required.
