Ministries:
Many lay ministries serve in support of the celebration of Holy Mass - Extraordinary Ministers of Holy Communion, Readers, Musicians, Altar Servers, Greeters, Ushers, Sacristans, and those who assist with Art and Environment. Some who have served in these ministries have indicated that they will delay their return to service, while others have indicated that they will "retire" from the ministry. There is a need for additional people to serve in these ministries. Training and support will be provided. Please let me know if you would like to have an exploratory conversation about serving in one of these ministries.
