ministers. You are invited to participate in this ministry.

Lectors:
Ministers of the Word proclaim the Word of God to the assembled community at
all liturgies. By prayerful preparation for this ministry, they strive
to engage the assembly in a living experience of the Word of God and the
presence of Christ in each celebration. Training is provided.

Ministers of
Hospitality (Ushers and Greeters): In the name of Christ and the parish
community, greeters offer a warm, friendly greeting to those arriving for
Mass. So often people judge a parish by its personal warmth at
Mass. New helpers are always welcome!

Music Ministry:
This ministry consists of 3 parts: Choir, Cantors and Instrumentalists.
Choir: The
choir consists of persons whose musical abilities range from simply
carrying a tune to those with accomplished music reading and singing
skills. Choir members continually build their musical and vocal
skills, learning from each other in a relaxed supportive atmosphere.
There is no age limit for choir membership, new members are always
welcome!

Cantors:
Cantors are those singers who are able to sing and direct alone in front
of the assembly. Through personal prayer and preparation, they
provide leadership and inspiration for the song of the assembly. If
this is your talent, come share it!

Instrumentalists: By playing various instruments, musicians
enhance the beauty of the music of the assembly. Such ministry
requires a reasonably high level of musical proficiency, along with a
personal commitment to prayer and worship. Come join us!

Altar Servers:
Altar servers assist the Presider during the weekend, Holy Day, and funeral
Masses. They help the Presider by lighting the candles, holding the
Sacramentary, placing vessels on the altar, etc. Servers are actively
engaged in all that happens in our liturgy. This ministry is open to
boys and girls, fourth grade and older who have received their First Eucharist.
Training is provided.
