Parish Administration & Communications


Parish Advisory Board (PAB)
With the parish mission statement, goals and objectives as their creed, the PAB advises the pastor and plays an active role in the parish. Members express the ‘voice of the parish’ and engage the parish at large to create opportunities for dialogue, volunteerism, fellowship, and community. Members of the PAB assist with parish-wide events and initiatives throughout the year, including but not limited to the parish picnic, Discipleship in Action month and the parish directory. In addition, PAB members are expected to serve on and/or lead committees as the need arises. The PAB meets bimonthly (2nd Thursday of the month) and is made up of 12 elected members. There is a Chairperson, Vice Chairperson and Secretary, elected yearly from within the Board. Six new members are elected each year during a parish-wide, popular election, replacing those whose two-year term has ended. Members can serve two consecutive two-year terms and then must step down for at least  one year. The PAB strives to be a body that represents the many backgrounds, ages, mass cohorts and ministry groups of the parish. As such, any active church  member who is at least 18 years old and has been registered at OLQP for 2 years, is eligible for candidacy.
Current Chair: Jen Vigario, ​jmvigario@gmail.com
Current Vice-Chair: Maureen McGinnis, maureen.c.lucas@gmail.com

Finance Council
In accordance with the requirements of the new Canon Law, the purpose of the Finance Council is to advise the pastor in evaluating and making decisions about the use of the material wealth and goods of the parish. The primary objective of the Council is to support the stated goals and objectives of the parish as determined by the Advisory Board in consultation with the pastor. The Finance Council meets at least 4 times per year and is made up of 6-9 members appointed by the pastor. Also in attendance at each FC meeting are the Budget Committee chair, the pastor and the business manager. A term on the FC is three years. Members can serve three consecutive terms and then must step down for at least one year.
Current Chair: Frances Michalkewicz, fmichalkewicz@comcast.net​

Bulletin Folding Teams & Parish Office Volunteers
From time to time and on a regular basis, office volunteers assist with data entry, bulletin folding and inserting, scanning and archiving. Most tasks require use of office equipment such as folding machine, copy machine and computer. Instruction and guidance are provided. Opportunities available during office hours Mon-Fri, 9-4 pm and on Saturdays.

The Advocate Newsletter
The first edition of The Advocate was published in the late 1980s and was designed to be the vehicle used by the lay leadership to communicate with the parish at large. Since then, this quarterly publication has evolved to become a vehicle for highlighting news in the parish and raising up ministries, groups and individuals and current issues.
