This committee is in charge of finding volunteers and coordinating:
Eucharist Ministers
These ministers assist the priest and deacon with the distribution of the Body and Blood of Christ during Mass. Ministers of Holy Communion must be in full communion with the Catholic Church and have received the Sacrament of Confirmation. Training is provided.
Lectors
These ministers proclaim the Word of God at Mass in an inspiring and meaningful way. They carefully review the Scripture passages and practice reading them aloud before coming to church. Training is provided.
Servers
Altar servers assist the priest during Mass by participating in the entrance procession, the presentation of the gifts, preparation of the altar and holding the missal. This ministry is open to boys and girls in third grade through high school. Training sessions are provided.
Greeters
Greeters welcome people with a smile and try to make visitors feel “at home”. Individuals or families are encouraged to become greeters and greet people before Mass.
Ushers
Ushers provide hospitality for the congregation before, during, and after each Mass. They assist with seating, taking up collections, special needs, and the opening/closing of doors for parishioners as they arrive/leave Mass. Adults and youth are encouraged to be involved.
Gifts
- Individuals or families carry the offertory collection, hosts, and wine to the altar during Mass.
