Liturgical

Liturgical ministry is an excellent opportunity to utilize the talents and gifts that God has given this community to the fullest extent.  Whether participation is through “behind the scenes” preparation or through a public role of service within the Mass, your help is needed to offer a truly life-giving celebration.  Please prayerfully consider joining one of these ministries:

Altar Servers

Children fifth grade and older are invited to assist the priests during Mass and other liturgical celebrations. This is a wonderful way for parish youth to learn and grow in their appreciation of our rich Catholic tradition.

Extraordinary Ministers of Holy Communion

Adults who will assist the priests with distribution of Holy Communion at Mass.

Lectors

Parishioners who proclaim the Scripture readings, with the exception of the Gospel, during Masses and other Liturgical celebrations. Lectors will also be commentators to read the general intercessions during Mass.

Sacristans

Adult volunteers who will set up the altar, Communion vessels, Body and Blood of Christ, and other items needed for Mass. Sacristans will also ensure that all sacred vessels are properly cleaned and stored after Mass.

Ushers

Greeters/Ushers will welcome and greet parishioners and visitors as they arrive at Mass. In addition to their normal duties, ushers will help find seating, collect offertory, and distribute bulletins.
