Children’s Liturgy of the Word Children attending the 10:30 Mass on Sunday morning will be invited to participate in the Liturgy of the Word for Children. The children leave after the opening prayer and go to their own gathering space. They hear a simplified version of what the adults hear and have it explained in words appropriate to their age. The Gospel will always be used, but the readings may be condensed. The children return to church before Communion. If you love children, have a talent for music or would just like to volunteer your time, you are welcome to join us in this ministry.

Extraordinary Ministers of Holy Communion In this ministry we serve the Church by distributing communion to the faithful during Mass. A number of these ministers are also involved in our Homebound Ministry. All adult members of the parish who participate in Mass regularly are prospective candidates for this ministry.

Ministers of the Word An opportunity to proclaim the Word of God at Mass is available to the laity. This ministry is open to adults and teens who have been confirmed, have good speaking skills and a sincere desire to share God’s word with others. Generally, each lector serves once or twice a month at the Mass he/she regularly attends. Individuals expressing an interest in this ministry receive training and an opportunity to attend workshops that help deepen their understanding of Scripture. Our parish is always in need of additional lectors.
