The Parish Council serve as consultants to the pastor by investigating, reflecting on, visioning, and making recommendations about pastoral concerns. It is our goal to support the current and future ministries of our parish, thus enabling the Church of the Ascension to continue our mission to Proclaim the Gospel, Celebrate the Eucharist and Serve the Community.
As representatives of our parishioners, we prayerfully reflect and advise on the needs of the community and the purpose of the parish in the light of the mission of the Church of the Ascension, the Diocese of Richmond, and the greater Catholic Church.
Finally, the parish council continuously develops and articulates a deep and mature understanding of the identity and purpose of the parish. It reflects the unique personality of the parish as it evolves, using the mission statement of the parish as our foundation.
