Home
and School Association:
The Home and School
Association (HSA) is a group of parent volunteers and teachers whose
purpose is to promote the welfare of the children and youth in the
parish school, to bring into closer relationship in the home and the
school so parents and teachers may cooperate in the teaching and
formation of the children, to deepen their own understanding of the
principles of Catholic education, and to help facilitate and meet
the financial goals and commitments of the school.

Parish School Council:
In the Archdiocese of Portland, all school councils
are advisory in nature. A school council may participate in
decision-making by formulation and recommending, but never enacting
policy. Christ the King Parish School Council is a group consisting
of elected and appointed volunteers from within the School and
Parish community. The umbrella role of the Parish School Council is
to provide policy direction to educational programs for Christ the
King School. Meetings are generally held monthly.

Pastoral Council:
The
Pastoral Council meets monthly for the purpose of assisting the
pastor to assess the pastoral needs of the community. It is
designed for a membership of ten parishioners, each serving a term
of three years. Membership includes the Pastor, School Principal
and Director of Religious Education. Also invited to attend are the
Parish Secretary, Business Manager, and member of the Parish. The
Mission of the Parish Pastoral Council is to support the pastoral
works of Christ the King parish.

Stewardship Committee:
The Stewardship
Committee is a sub-committee of the Pastoral Council and focuses on
ways and means for parishioners to be good stewards of their
individual talents and possessions. Simply stated, stewardship is
an expression of gratitude to God. The committee's main objective
is to work on ways that remind us that we are the administrators,
not the owners, of our assets. It fills a need deep within each of
us to worship God and to thank Him for the abundant blessings He has
showered upon us. The "Stewardship: A Holy Way of Life" effort by
this committee, deals with a very realistic and easy-to-understand
opportunity to worship God and to express gratitude to Him through
the intentional, planned and proportionate contribution of time
(prayer & worship), talent (ministry & service), and treasure
(income & assets) to this parish and other charities.
Vocation Committee :
Meets quarterly to
encourage and support vocations to the priesthood and religious
life.
