The St Mark's Parish Pastoral Council (PPC) is a group of parishioners, along with the Parish Priest, Assistant Priest, Pastoral Associate and School Principal, who help to guide the direction of our parish community.

Importantly, the Council provides a forum for liaison with the school and the individual
ministries and assists where it can.

The Council also undertakes specific projects.  Recent projects include:

• launching a five-year Parish Strategic Plan for community consultation;
• remodelling the parish website;
• organising regular morning teas;
• processes for welcoming new parishioners; and
• helping to update the parish’s audio visual capabilities.

The PPC meets once a month from March to December.  In addition, there is a one-day Planning Retreat in February.  Councillors typically serve a four-year term.
