Liturgical Minsities

Sacristans prepare the sacred vessels, set up the credence and gift table for Mass on the weekend. The sacristan ministry also includes cleaning the sacred vessels after Mass, preparing for the next Mass or putting everything in its place after the final weekend Mass. Sacristans volunteer their services on a rotation basis for the Mass they usually attend. Training is available for all new sacristans. Please call the parish office if you are interested.   

The proclamation of the Word of God is truly a service to the Church. Lectors bring the living Word of God to the liturgical assembly. The Ministry of the Word should, therefore, be treated seriously and with great dignity. All parishioners who feel the call to be a Lector for Mass are welcome to join this ministry. Lector schedules are on a rotation basis for the Mass they usually attend. Please call the office to get more details. 

Teams of two volunteers greet and welcome parishioners and visitors before Mass, perform the duties of taking kup the collection during Mass. They are sensitive to the needs of our parishioners and visitors who may need their assistance during Mass. Ushers are assigned to carry out this ministry during a Mass they usually attend on the weekends and Holy Days of Obligation. Ushers are scheduled on a rotation basis which provides them the opportunity to serve in this ministry several times throughout the year. Training is provided throughout the year for those wishing to become an usher. Please call the parish office for more details.

Youth in grades six through high school are welcome to assist as an altar server during Mass. Two servers are assigned for Saturday and Sunday Masses while more assist on special occasions. New server training is provided throughout the year. Servers are scheduled at the Mass their family normally attends. Please call the parish office if you have a child that is interested in becoming an Altar Server.
