Liturgical ministry

Liturgical Ministries
- 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 the ministries listed below.
Extraordinary Ministers of Holy Communion
- Extraordinary Ministers of Holy Communion are adult parishioners who volunteer to assist the priests with distribution of Holy Communion at weekend and Holy Day Masses. Training is provided for you if you would like to become a Eucharistic Minister at Mass.
Lectors
- Lectors are adult parishioners who volunteer to 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
- Sacristans are adult parishioners who will set up the altar, Communion vessels, Body and Blood of Christ, and other items needed for weekday and weekend Masses. Sacristans will also ensure that all sacred vessels are properly cleaned and stored after Mass.
Ushers
- Parishioners who wish to be an Usher will welcome and greet parishioners and visitors as they arrive at weekend and Holy Day Masses. In addition to their normal duties, ushers will help find seating, collect offertory, and distribute bulletins.
Altar Servers
- Boys who have made their First Communion through high school are invited to assist the priests during weekend 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.
Daughters of St. Thérèse Altar Guild
- Girls who have made their First Communion through college are invited to become a member of the Daughters of St. Therese Altar Guild. The St. Therese Altar Guild meets monthly to learn to assist the priest before and after Masses and learn more about the liturgical celebrations in the Catholic Church.
- Do you ever sit at Mass and wish you could be more involved in the Mass? There are so many ways to be part of the Mass and we could really use you! Sign up to the right to let us know what you are interested in helping with and someone will get back to you.
- Yes, I would like more information to help liturgically at mass.
