Membership of the council shall be made up of both ex-officio members: Pastor, Parochial Vicar, Trustees, Deacon, Representative of St. Margaret's School; a Representative from the Religious Education Program, and the members-at-large elected in May by the members of the parish to serve a three year term. There are nine members- at-large on the Pastoral Council.

Meetings are scheduled six times a year and are open to all members of the parish.

Parish Finance Committee (Back to Top)

According to church law, every parish must have a finance council which is regulated by universal church law and the norms of the local bishop. In the Diocese of Syracuse, a parish finance committee consists of the two parish trustees as well as other qualified persons appointed by the pastor. A representative from the parish council and someone from St Margaret School also attend finance committee meetings. This committee assists the pastor in the preparation of the annual budget and financial report for the church and school and offers advice on the administration of parish goods. The finance committee of St. Margaret Church generally meets four times a year.

Current permanent members are trustees Sam Rotundo and Joyce Orlandella as well as Mike Dunne, Kelly Merrill, Jim Shepardson, Marie Tricarico and Elaine Quick, parish business manager.

Each member contributes his or her talents in the growth process through meaningful liturgies, sharing prayer, and faith. Our parish vision reflects the hopes and dreams of our parish as a worshipping community with a vibrant prayer life, celebrating the Sacraments and meaningful liturgies and being a community of service sensitive to the needs of others, evangelizing and spreading the "Good News" to all people.
