Ministries
Liturgical (Mass) MinistriesServing at Mass is an honor and a privilege which should not be entered into lightly. Prayerful people who enjoy serving and meeting people are those best suited to these ministries. Training is required for all those interested in serving at Mass. Altar Servers assist the priest at Mass. Young people may participate in this ministry once they have received First Holy Communion. Extraordinary Ministers of Holy Communion assist in distributing Holy Communion during Mass and to the sick and homebound of the parish. Lectors proclaim the Sunday Mass readings for the congregation. Ushers greet and assist people as they enter for Mass, take up the Offertory collection and guide people during Communion.

The Children’s Choir is open to children of the parish ages 5-13. The children's choir rehearses on Monday afternoons at 3:30 pm to 4:30 pm in the Music room and sings the first Sunday of every month at the 9 am Mass. This is a wonderful opportunity for the children to learn to sing beautifully and praise God with a fun and exciting spirit. Contact: Maralyn Coscia, 561-313-3290
