Lectors proclaim the Word of God during the Liturgy of the Word at Mass. They are entrusted with reading the first reading at Daily Mass or the first and second readings at Sunday Masses or other major feasts. Lectors are encouraged to continually meditate on Sacred Scripture, so that their faithful proclamation of the readings at Mass will in turn inspire the faithful to turn to God through His Word.

Sacristans prepare the Church for the Eucharistic celebration at Mass. The sacristan diligently arranges the liturgical books, the vestments, and other things that are necessary for the celebration of Mass. Working from the sacristy, he or she is well trained in the complexities of the liturgical actions, as well as those of special Masses or those of greater solemnity, so as to make appropriate provisions.

Altar servers assist the priest and deacon during Mass. They carry the cross, the candles, the thurible, the bread , the wine, and the water. They hold the Sacramentary while the priest reads from it. One must be in 5th grade or higher and must have received the Sacraments of Baptism, First Penance, and First Holy Communion.

Anyone thinking about becoming an altar server from (3rd grade to adults) is welcome to contact us and schedule a training session. Please contact the parish office or email to Jason Schmidt at [email protected]

Choir, cantors, musicians and singers give their time and talent during liturgies and other services requiring music. Our adult choir and cantors are accompanied by organ, our singing groups are accompanied by piano and/or guitars. Approach any group after Mass to inquire or contact Greg Zyjewski at [email protected]. MUSIC

Ushers are available at the doors of our Church to assist in seating. They also take up the collection and assist parishioners with emergencies and illness during Mass.

Greeters warmly welcome people as they arrive at Mass. They may also distribute worship materials or bulletins.
