Host Greeter 

Are you a people person? Joyfully greet parishioners as they arrive, guide them to their seats, distribute bulletins, assist with the offertory collections, guide Communion reception. We offer ongoing personal training, and all ages are welcome! This is a perfect ministry for families.

Music Ministry

Use the talent of your voice or musical instrument to praise God and to help the congregation to participate in the liturgies. For more information, visit our Music Ministry page.

Sacristans

The sacristan carefully arranges the liturgical books, the vestments, sacred vessels, and other things necessary in the celebration of Mass.  This person undertakes the overall preparation of liturgical celebrations, including all that is needed for special liturgies.

Altar Servers 

Dedicated, responsible youth in Grades 3 and up – even adults – who have received their First Holy Communion will assist the priest in the celebration of Mass and other worship services such as weddings and funerals. Training will be provided. This is an excellent way for children and adults to experience the Mystery of the Mass in a deeper way; grow their relationship with our Lord, Jesus Christ who is Present in the Eucharist; deepen their faith and sense of service and make new friends.
