The PLT is a group of leaders selected by the pastor who share in his responsibility for the spiritual and organizational health of the entire parish.  Team members take individual and collective ownership for the health and results of the whole parish, not simply their areas of responsibility or concern.  Each team member must choose to be a leader and embrace their responsibility for making the parish a healthy organization on mission.

The team works outward beginning with Key Parish Leaders, the staff, councils, volunteers, anyone with influence in the parish, ending with the community to engage them in the culture they are trying to build.  Through this work, they are trying to communicate the clarity they have come to as a team and hold everyone accountable to that clarity.
