With the aid of a Pastoral Associate, St. John Neumann Catholic Church strives to provide a comprehensive and integrated array of pastoral ministries that promote healing and spiritual growth.
The Pastoral Associate works with the Pastor to assess the needs of the parish and set priorities for supporting and developing pastoral and social ministries to meet the dynamic and changing needs of the parish. In addition, the Pastoral Associate assists the Pastor by coordinating and maintain liaison with similar ministries in the local community and throughout the Dioceses of Richmond.
The Pastoral Associate focuses especially on volunteer recruitment, training, and leadership development of lay pastoral ministers.

“No vocation is born of itself or lives for itself. A vocation flows from the heart of God and blossoms in the good soil of faithful people. Did not Jesus say: “By this all men will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another” (Jn 13:35)?
