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. We cpntinue to focus on Faith Formation K-5, Youth Ministry, Adult Formation, and administrative functions. 

Combining our two Pastoral Parish Councils was the first initiative undertaken by the Collaboration Team in 2019. Due COVID-19, this year Parish Council meetings will be held in person in the St. Joseph's Gathering Space with the option to join via Zoom. All sister parish town hall meetings are via Zoom Webinar and will require registration in advance.

There is a Collaboration Team that meets regularly and includes our Council chairs Ned Sayegh and Tony Gramza, 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 for Town Halls.
