PARISH COUNCIL
A group of nine elected parishioners who meet monthly and share with the pastor the administrative duties and policy making of the parish. Three parishioners are elected every year and serve a three-year term. A nominating committee begins to meet in March of each year. Elections are held in June, with the new terms commencing in September.
Parish Council meets the second Tuesday of every month. The Parish Committees that report to council are:
- Stewardship
- Buildings and Grounds
- Finance
- Liturgy
- Social Concerns
- Parish Life
- Education
- Communication
The mission statement of Parish Council reads, "We are a group of people bound together by our belief in Jesus Christ. Through our baptism, we are called to share in His work. Therefore we pledge ourselves through the ideal of shared ministry to build a community where all are welcomed, loved, needed and appreciated; to celebrate the gift of life together in word and sacrament; and to promote justice, peace and equality for all people.
Parish Council President: Steven Meier, 442-6567

STEWARDSHIP
The purpose is to assist the Pastor in various aspects of the ongoing parish Stewardship program. The program encourages parishioners to share their time, talent and treasure.
The Stewardship Committee conducts a stewardship fair, in which the activities of the various committees are outlined, and volunteer opportunities are available. Parishioners sign up for the committees they would like to help, using their time and talent to make Our Lady of Victory a vital parish.
Fund raising for parish needs, is another aspect of the Stewardship Committee.
