We are always on the lookout for people to help with the various ministries in the Mass. Below you will find the various liturgical ministries and select a ministry or two that speaks to you.
 Extraordinary Minister of Holy Communion: Extraordinary ministers help the clergy to distiribute Holy Communion so that it can be done in a reasonable amount of time. Extraordinary ministers can either disitribute the Body of Christ or the Chalice of Christ's Blood. Those who volunteer for this ministry should have a deep and profound love for Holy Eucharist, must be a Confirmed Catholic, and have steady hands.
Lector: Lectors proclaim the Word of God. Lectors typically read the announcements before Mass, do both readings (Old & New Testaments) and offer the petitions. Lectors should love Sacred Scripture, be strong readers, and be comfortable in front of an audience. To get on the Lector schedule contact
