St. Pius X is shepherded by Fr. Martin Ezeihuaku, MSP, Pastor. Fr. Martin seeks consultation by two primary Councils: “The Council of Elders” along with the Pastoral Council (read below) and “The Finance Council.“ The parish leadership has four commissions:

Council of Elders

A select group of leaders of the community (biblically, called ‘elders,’ Acts 20:17-38, esp. 28) are appointed by the Pastor to act as the deciding members of the Pastoral Council. It is the responsibility of the Council of Elders to meet monthly in order to hear requests from the larger body of the Pastoral Council for the good of the flock of St. Pius X parish. Members of the Council of Elders are dynamic disciples of Jesus Christ who are spiritually mature, comfortable leading prayer, adept to serve as ambassadors of Jesus and the parish of St. Pius X.

They meet the first Wednesday of each month at 7:00pm in the Parish Center. Officers and members for the 2023-2024 year follow:
