The Sandgate Brighton Catholic Parish Pastoral Council exists to promote the mission of our Catholic Church. This body of parishioners is a consultative group formed to assist and advise our Parish Priest in his stewardship of the parish.

Pastoral Council Mission Statement

We strive to be servant leaders of a welcoming, united, faith community led by the person of Jesus Christ.
We pray for guidance by the Holy Spirit to support the Parish Priest and we will be open and responsive to the needs and gifts of all parishioners, to achieve Parish Pastoral priorities to the glory of God the Father.
Participation on the Sandgate Brighton Catholic Parish Pastoral Council is a wonderfully enriching experience and a significant opportunity to share in the responsibility for the spiritual life of our parish.

The Pastoral Council meets on the first Thursday of each month.
