Faith and Mission Committee

Faith and Mission Committee

Faith and mission development and expression are integral to the identity and activity of Iona College and there are many opportunities for these in the formal and informal experiences of school life.  

The Mission Committee was established at the Board Meeting of February 25, 2008 and it is a Permanent Standing Committee of the College Board. The terms of reference are determined by Board and may be varied by the Board from time to time.
