Environment Group

Following the liturgical calendar, and in support of liturgy planning, the Environment Group prepares the visual environment that surround us through the placement of decorations in the sanctuary and church during the changing seasons of the church year - Advent to Christmas, Lent to Easter, and Ordinary Time.  

 

Extraordinary Ministers of Holy Communion

The ordinary ministers of Holy Communion are the ordained.  The extraordinary ministers are members of the parish trained to assist in the distribution of Holy Communion.  They do so in a prayerful, reverent manner and make every effort to join in the spirit of the liturgy when serving in this capacity.

Lectors

Lectors proclaim God's word during the Liturgy of the Word at Mass.  Those interested in this ministry will take a short class to make them more comfortable as a reader.  Being a lector is a great way to serve God and his people at mass.

 

Liturgy Committee

The Liturgy Committee meets periodically to plan all aspects of the liturgy for each of the liturgical seasons:  Advent, Ordinary Time, and Easter plus the Feast and Holy Days of the Catholic calendar.

Sacristans

Sacristans work behind the scenes, usually in the sacristy, to prepare for the celebration of the Mass and to clean after the Mass.  This is a detailed ministry and requires explanation and training for the various responsibilities.

 

Ushers

Ushers perform the important task of welcoming Mass attendees and also take up the collection, present the gifts, count the attendance, and pass out hymnals and bulletins.

Mission

Guided by the Spirit of God and for the love and service of our neighbors, we will join with our pastor, the administrative staff and fellow parishioners to minister to the varied needs of people of all ages and ethnicities within the worship sites of our parish.

 

Vision

We pledge to strive constantly to build an ever stronger parish family in which: 

-  The word of God is proclaimed, celebrated and integrated into daily living

-  We witness the Gospel through our actions of caring and concern for the needs of those around us

-  We are committed to working through social ministry against oppression and injustice

-  We empower all members of the parish community to take ownership in the life of the parish
