Pastoral Council
The Pastoral Council is an all-volunteer advisory board advocating for Parishioners and Visitors – from retirees to the workforce to children. We operate with the guidance of Jesus Christ and Mother Mary, consistent with the direction of the Archdiocese of Denver, our strategic plan, and the Mission of our Parish.
If you have questions or would like to provide your input, please contact one of the council members:

**Focus Groups**
The Pastoral Council is working with Fr. Erik and the Finance Council to refine our Plan and refresh our Parish’s position in the community.
During the summer, we asked Parishioners – full-time and seasonal – to complete a survey. Now, we are asking Parishioners to sign up for a Focus Group. These are small group sessions, facilitated by a member of the Parish Council, designed to probe a few important topics, such as volunteerism, ministries, the role of the Blessed Virgin Mary in our Parish, etc.
Each session will last no more than 90 minutes. Please complete the form below to select a convenient time to participate. Groups are limited to 8 participants. Your input will be used to refresh our Parish’s Plan, save Souls and unite St. Mary Parish ♱ Our Lady of Peace.
Soft drinks and snacks will be served at each session. Please see the dates and times below. For further information, please contact Anne McCarthy via email: amfmccarthy@me.com or cell phone: +1.303.506.2084:
Wednesday, 12/17: 4-5:30 p.m.
