St. Leonard’s Human Concerns Committee is seeking a new Chairperson who can lead our vibrant committee to complete its mission of service to those who lack basic human needs and to foster a concern for social justice issues as Jesus did.

This is a volunteer position that works with the rest of the committee members, parish staff, chairmen of other parish ministries/committees, and outside organizations as needed. The structure for this position and the committee’s mission is guided by the Pastoral Council and the Archdiocese of Milwaukee. The main duties are preparing and presiding over a monthly committee meeting (September through May), overseeing the committee members and the many events it sponsors throughout the year, and assuring that parish policies/procedures are followed.

Please prayerfully consider this opportunity in your life. If you are interested in this role or would like to learn more, please contact Jeanie Lewandowski by April 30 to discuss more thoroughly what the position entails. She can be reached by calling 414-520-5077 or email here.
