FINANCE COUNCIL
Code of Canon Law, Canon 537, "Each parish is to have a finance council which is regulated by universal law as well as by norms issued by the diocesan bishop; in this council the Christian faithful, selected according to the same norms, aid the pastor in the administration of parish goods with due regard for the prescription of Canon 532."
FAITH FORMATION BOARD
“Every parish needs a coherent, well-integrated catechetical plan which provides opportunities for all parishioners to encounter the gospel message and respond by fostering community and giving service. A single representative board, responsible for the total educational program, should be involved in catechetical planning in every parish.” (National Catechetical Directory, #224)
