The Finance Council is a body appointed by the Pastor and entrusted with the responsibility of planning, managing, and overseeing the temporal affairs of the parish. Its duties include monitoring parish income and expenditures, developing the annual budget, and making recommendations to the Pastor regarding financial matters. The Council is also responsible for providing regular financial reports to the parish community, the Pastor, and the Diocese. As the first and most comprehensive line of defense against financial impropriety and instability, the Finance Council plays a critical role in ensuring transparency, accountability, and sound stewardship of parish resources.
