Ministry Schedules     Volunteer Opportunities     Committee Members

EUCHARISTIC  MINISTERS are parishioners who assist in the distribution of Communion, offering the Body and Blood of Christ to the assembly of God's People.  Eucharistic ministers also bring Communion to parishioners who are homebound or unable to attend Mass at the church. They are chosen and commissioned by the pastor. Schedule

LECTORS (Readers) proclaim the Scriptures as parish liturgies.  They are scheduled two weeks at a time throughout the Church Year.  Schedule

USHERS are the ministers of hospitality to the assembly of God's People.  They also manage the Sunday offering and assist in people's needs during the liturgy.  All parishioners, men, women and young people, are invited to be ushers.  Schedule

SERVERS help in the celebration of the Mass and other liturgies. Fourth graders or older may be servers.  Adults also serve regularly.  Training is held and schedules published regularly.  Schedule

SACRISTANS are usually members of the Liturgy Committee and help with the routine preparation for liturgies.  They also help with the seasonal environment (decoration) of the church.  

MUSIC MINISTRIES  Musicians, choirs, and cantors lead the assembly in musical praise of God.  A parish choir, folk group and several ensembles alternate leading music at Sunday, holyday and feast day liturgies.  All parishioners are always welcome to join the choir or folk group or to offer musical talents and skills.   For more information if interested call Gail Osendorf  256-4207
