PARISH PASTORAL COUNCIL
The formation of the Pastoral Parish Council (PPC) was initiated to support the parish rector in cultivating a spiritually-guided community within the parish. Its purpose encompasses acting as a liaison group and coordinator for various activities and pastoral programs. Its establishment was driven by the aspiration to foster a genuinely God-centered community in the parish, fostering collaboration among individuals and various groups and movements within the parish. The PPC also plays a pivotal role in the dissemination of faith centered on God and in nurturing the spiritual and moral lives of the faithful, emphasizing worship through liturgy.
Our Lady of Mount Carmel Parish established its PPC in 1972 during the tenure of Msgr. Angel Pengson as the rector, with its inaugural president being Bro. Fortunato Limpo, who served from 1972 to 1985.
The PPC's programs are rooted in the core mission of the church, which seeks to guide all toward attaining eternal life. These programs are designed to align with the parish's objectives, striving to ensure that every parishioner receives eternal life and salvation. While each organization within the parish may have its unique functions and programs, those falling under the seven commissions share a common goal of fulfilling the parish's mission and programs.
The rector serves as the overall chairman of the PPC. In this capacity, the rector assumes the responsibility of leading the PPC Officers, Parish Executive Board (Exeboard), and the various commissions and groups. The PPC convenes every third week of the month to deliberate on significant parish programs aimed at meeting the church's needs and advancing its evangelization mission.
