How the Church is organised in the Local Parish and in the Manchester Diocese |
Local Parish
The Priest-in-Charge is responsible for the entire Parish community including worship services
The two Church Wardens provide support for the Priest-in-Charge and are responsible for the Fabric of the Church
The Parochial Church Council (PCC)
- is made up of elected Church members
- meets at least 4 times per year
- has a secretary and a treasurer
- make decisions about the Finances and Activities of the Parish
- takes ownership of the Mission of the church
The Standing and Finance Committee is a subset of the PCC and meets and can make decisions in between PCC meetings
A number of smaller committees are made up from PCC members and congregation members to discuss specific aspects of the Church and to create proposals for PCC consideration.
