Liturgical Ministries

Altar Servers
- Children and adults who have received First Communion assist the presider during our Liturgical celebrations. For more details about this ministry, please contact Pat Holm.
Eucharistic Minister
- Aid in the distribution of the Body and Precious Blood of our Lord at Eucharistic celebrations.
Funeral Acolyte
- When there is a parish funeral, these ministers welcome the bereaved into the church, provide a supportive presence, and assist the presiding priest with the funeral Mass. Ministers are contacted when a funeral is scheduled and volunteer as time allows them.
Holy Wash
- Provide care for the church linens and the sanctuary of the church. Volunteers for Holy Wash wash and iron the purificators once a week for one month per year; the ironing takes an hour or less per week.
Environment
- Place appropriate decorations in the church to enhance daily and weekend liturgical services and highlight liturgical seasons. Also prepare the sanctuary for special celebrations.
Music
- Lead the congregation in singing during the Liturgy.
Hospitality
- Bake treats for our weekly Hospitality event, which is held after the 10 a.m. Sunday Mass. Drop off treats to the kitchen by the Gathering Space any Sunday morning — with your name so we know who to thank! Contact Jay Buhr with any questions.
Ushers
- Warmly greet parishioners as they enter the church, distribute song sheets and weekly bulletins at the entrances of the church, assist parishioners with seating as needed, and collect the weekly offertory from the congregation at a designated time during the Mass.
