Lector
Proclaim the Word of God during Mass! A lector spreads the Good News and gives witness to the central role of God’s Word in the life of the Church.
Usher
Ushers provide a very special service of hospitality as their liturgical ministry. They are the first people to greet and welcome those who come to participate in the Celebration of the Eucharist. In addition to this important duty, they are also responsible for directing the Eucharistic procession during Mass, taking the offering, as well as distributing the parish bulletins and other materials after Mass.
