• outreach to those most in need in our community;
• linking the Parish with other parishes in the Diocese and whole Church;
• working with other Churches in ecumenical projects and unity work;
• growing youth work within the Parish;
• all parishioners realising their share in the work and life of the Church.

The Parish Priest is the President of the Parish Council, and the Office Bearers are:
