Nominations accepted through March 4
Do You Want to Get Involved? We’d Love to Have You!
More than ever, we need energetic, faith-filled members who are committed to bringing new ideas and change to better serve our parishioners. This is an exciting time to join a committee as we work with our new pastor and use our parish-wide survey results for planning. Committees meet a minimum of six times a year and carry out objectives set in collaboration with the Pastoral Council or Finance Council.
This is your opportunity to make a difference and have a direct impact on how St. John Vianney can become a more dynamic, faithful parish where we all strive to become disciples of Christ!
We’d love to have you join our leadership committees if you (or someone you know) has…- a desire to engage groups deeper into our faith | Formation Committee
- an interest in mission trips or service projects | Human Concerns Committee
- a passion for Catholic education | School Committee
- an interest to engage all parishioners | Stewardship Committee
- a love for the Mass and prayer | Worship Committee
- an enthusiasm for youth sports | Athletic Committee
