This ministry provides members of the parish with a true opportunity to function as lay ministers by reverently assisting the celebrant and/or deacon during Sunday Mass and at special liturgies throughout the year.
Lectors proclaim the Word of God clearly and understandably so that all who hear may respond.
The Ministry of Music provides music during weekend Masses, holy days, weddings, funerals and Reconciliation services. Parishioners are invited to share their musical talents with the rest of the congregation through this ministry.
These lay people are sometimes referred to as Eucharistic Ministers. Extraordinary Ministers of Holy Communion serve by bringing communion to parishioners who reside in nursing homes, assisted living facilities, or in their own homes and unable to get to church. They also may assist the priest in distributing the Eucharist at Mass.
Ushers serve about two or three times a week depending on need. You are responsible for helping seat people, take up the collection and distribute the bulletins.
This ministry provides a positive, enjoyable, real, and Holy experience for our regular parishioners and any visitors who are with us. What better way than with a warm welcome and a smile as they walk through the door!
We are looking for those who can commit a little of their time and talents to this ministry. It's not hard work. All you really need is a smile and an enthusiastic attitude.
This is a serious ministry as well as a fun ministry. Your smile and greeting will brighten other people's day and speak volumes to your fellow parishioners. It will say, “you are somebody, you matter to me, I’m glad you’re here, I want you to feel welcomed.”
