The life and direction of the parish are supported by a number of leadership and governance groups. These ministries work alongside the clergy to provide guidance, stewardship, and practical oversight, helping to ensure the parish is well-supported both pastorally and administratively.

​

The key areas of Leadership and Governance include:

• Parish Pastoral Council

• Parish Finance Council

• Fundraising and Social

These groups rely on the generosity and experience of parishioners who contribute their time and skills to support the ongoing life and mission of St Michael’s.
