Clergy Advisory Board Member Roles:

The role of a Clergy Advisory Board member consists of four main activities: Prayer, Offering Perspective, Promoting Theology of the Body and when appropriate, Supporting Ruah Woods Programs.

Prayer

Clergy Advisory Board members pray regularly that Ruah Woods may fulfill its mission and vision.

Perspective

From time to time, Clergy Advisory Board members are asked to provide their perspective on how to fulfill the mission and vision of Ruah Woods.

Promotion of Theology of the Body

Given the magnificent gift of John Paul II’s teaching, Clergy Advisory Board members are asked to promote the Theology of the Body so that all members of the Church might be exposed to its liberating and life-changing message.

Program Support

When possible and appropriate, Clergy Advisory Board members assist Ruah Woods in fulfilling its mission and vision through the active support of its education and communication programs.
