Council


Mark Street United Church Council is a committee of nine persons plus the Minister. United Church policy requires the Minister (or a clergy designate) to attend all business meetings of the Council. Members are elected by the congregation.

Council has overall responsibility for leadership in the care and oversight of the spiritual life and interests of the Community of Faith. It is the responsibility of the Council to administer all matters of membership, spiritual, financial, pastoral relations, property, proposals, and reporting to the Region and the Wider Church. Records must be kept for several aspects of the church operation. This would include membership roll, baptisms, marriages and burials.
Council also recommends delegates to attend and subsequently report on activities at Regional Meetings. 

The Council meets regularly to attend to all matters of the Community of Faith. On average, meetings are held bi-monthly. It is a faithful commitment and members take their responsibility seriously. It is an honour to work on behalf of a wonderful and friendly Community of Faith at Mark Street United Church in Peterborough ON.
