The Pastoral Council serves as the pastoral planning body for the parish. It is responsible for assisting the Priest in the on-going process of identifying needs and developing the pastoral ministry of the parish and to direct the parish to become a close-knit community.

The membership of the Pastoral Council is composed of parishioners who are active Catholics in St. Joseph the Worker Parish. Through a process of discernment, council members are asked to serve a 3 year term.
