PARISH LIFE COMMISSION
Chairpersons
Bryan and Susan Gawronski
The
family is..the principal school of the social virtues which are necessary
to every society…it is therefore above all in the Christian family…that
children should be taught to know and worship God and to love their neighbor…Parents
should therefore, appreciate how important a role the truly Christian
family plays in the life and progress of the whole people of God.
This commission is concerned with those matters that build an internal family
spirit and improve Christian family life.
It is to help parish family members to develop a deeper understanding of
and commitment to their respective roles. This includes programs of
concern and support for single persons including the widowed, divorced and
separated,
as well as single parent families.

of the parish, maintains an annual calendar of scheduled events to give to the

for those supplies, equipment, and expenses necessary to carry out its action
plan.
