Homebound Ministers 
These ministers make Holy Communion available to parishioners who have become immobile temporarily or permanently. Our homebound communion ministers receive Extraordinary Minister of Holy Communion training. They receive Holy Communion during Mass and take it to the homebound parishioner.  The leader of this ministry sets a rotating schedule, ensuring each minister sees a variety of homebound. The commitment of time is typically no more than 2 visits a month.

January February March 2023 Homebound Schedule

If you are in need of receiving the Holy Eucharist at home, please Contact Us at the parish office.

Extraordinary Ministers of Holy Communion
The members of this ministry assist the priest in distributing Holy Communion during the masses. This ministry requires special training offered through the diocese. In most cases, the ministers serve once a month.  

Lectors
The minister of the Word proclaims the Sunday readings to all the faithful. We look for a good speaking voice and a time commitment at home in spending time studying and preparing the readings you will proclaim. We also ask for a commitment of time in training sessions offered about three times a year. For many people, Sunday is the only time they hear the Word of God in the readings. We must proclaim them well. We offer training and ongoing days of formation and prayer. If you feel called to this ministry, please contact the Pastor. 

Ushers
The minister of hospitality welcomes people to our parish proceeding each weekend liturgies and on Holy Days. They make parishioners and visitors feel at home and, if necessary, help them find a seat. This person also helps take the collection. Training is offered on an as-needed basis. If you are interested in Ushering, please contact the parish office.


If you are interested in participating in either of these ministries, please Contact Us at the parish office.
