As of March 2025 the PFAC replaces all three individual parish Pastoral Councils as part of the Partners in the Gospel process. This is a group of parishioners from each parish who are volunteering their time over the next few years to consult with parish leadership and engage parishioners.
Finance Councils will remain separate until the end of the process in 2027.
