The Christ the King (CTK) Parish Pastoral Council (PPC) serves our parish as a consultative body alongside the pastor. We strive to be a key instrument of lay leadership in the pastoral care and evangelization work of our parish and to encourage all members of Christ the King to play an active role in the life and presence of the Church in our community.
Our 2018 – 2021 strategy map includes a clear focus on building disciples, strengthening evangelization, and providing a rich experience at Mass. This focus was affirmed during our PPC retreat in the fall of 2019. In 2000, we adopted as our mission: Love the Lord, Encounter Christ, Serve all People.
PPC typically meets monthly from September to June. Meeting dates are set in collaboration with Father Louis. PPC is comprised of the pastoral team, representatives from number of our ministry committees, the youth minister, and representatives from CWL, Knights of Columbus, and the schools within our parish boundaries.
Members of PPC are approved by our Pastor and must be practicing, confirmed Catholics. Vacancies may be filled by appointment by the Pastor or by election or ratification at the Annual General Meeting.
