The Code of Canon Law (can. 537) mandates a finance council for every parish. Its purpose is to assist the Pastor in the administration of parish goods. The role of the finance council is a consultative one. It provides advice and direction to the Pastor who alone is the financial administrator of the parish.

Members of the parish finance council are freely appointed by the Pastor to a 3 year term (which can be renewed). The term of service is from September 1 to August 31 of each year. Members should be knowledgeable and experienced in areas such as business, law, financial management, accounting, or the like. Members are to be practicing Catholics, members of the parish, known for their integrity and committed to the welfare of the church.

Unless otherwise necessary and called by the Pastor, the parish finance council meets quarterly. Meeting dates will be published in parish bulletin and are on the website calendar.
