Ministries

“The deeds you do may be the only sermon some persons will hear today”  St. Francis Of Assisi

"There are different kinds of spiritual gifts but the same Spirit; there are different forms of service but the same Lord; there are different workings but the same God who produces all of them in everyone."

1 Corinthians 12:4-6

Our Parish offers many different opportunities for returning our gifts of time and talent to God. As stewards of God-given skills and abilities, volunteering in a ministry or organization provides a way to thank God, share our faith with others, and enhance our community.

Extraordinary Ministers of Holy Communion

These lay people are sometimes referred to as Eucharistic Ministers.   
Extraordinary Ministers of Holy Communion serve by bringing communion to parishioners who reside in nursing homes, assisted living facilities, or in their own homes and unable to get to church.  They also may assist the priest in distributing the Eucharist at Mass.

Ushers

These ministers are sometimes referred to as Greeters.  Being a welcoming community is very important to us.  Ushers are the first face of the parish.  They greet those coming into our church, offer assistance to those in need, distribute parish bulletins, take up the collection, and distribute other materials as needed.
