Extraordinary Ministers of Holy Communion

Whenever there is a need for the celebrating priest to have assistance distributing the most precious body and blood of our Lord at Mass, he is permitted, in the absence of other priests and deacons, to make use of Extraordinary Ministers of Holy Communion. These Ministers assist the priest at the Mass in the distribution of Holy Communion.

Men or women can serve as Extraordinary Minsters of Holy Communion.

Ministers of the Word (Readers at Mass)

Readers make the public proclamations of God's Word. They also lead the community's presentation of petitions and serve the needs of the parish through public announcements.

Qualities of a good Reader are:

• Knowledge, and appreciation and love for the scriptures
• The ability to proclaim the scriptures with poise and confidence
• Good public speaking skills
• A commitment to live the message of the scriptures that is being proclaimed

If you would like to serve our parish community in one of these important roles please contact Sue Bregel at [email protected] and she will be happy to assist you and answer your questions.

Altar Service Ministry

The mission of the Altar Service Ministry is for our parishioners to use their time and talents to make the setting for the celebration of the Mass as pleasing as it can be. This ministry will participate as needed to wash linens, care for vestments, maintain flowers and plants in church and help with general cleaning of the interior of the church.
