Ministries of Liturgy
Welcome! Liturgical ministry is an excellent opportunity to fulfill your baptismal call of service to one another. Our liturgies utilize the talents and gifts that God has given this community to the fullest extent. Whether participation is through “behind the scenes” preparation and planning or through a public role of service within the Mass, parishioner contributions help our liturgies to be truly life-giving celebrations. Please prayerfully consider joining one of these ministries.
If you would like to consider learning more about, or joining the Liturgical Minister team, please email your information to one of our Liturgical Minister coordinators listed below and they will contact you.
