Volunteer

Thank you for your interest in volunteering and serving the church by decorating the sanctuary. The busy times for church decorating are shortly before Advent, Christmas, Ash Wednesday, and Pentecost, and all throughout Holy Week and Easter. Fill out the interest form here to learn more. Consider volunteering for the following dates:

Saturday, March 23, 9:45 AM - 12:00 PM - Prepare the sanctuary and gathering space for Palm Sunday

Wednesday, March 27th, 5:30 PM - 8:00 PM - Prepare the sanctuary for Holy Thursday

Thursday, March 28th, immediately following adoration after Mass on Holy Thursday - Prepare the sanctuary for Good Friday

Saturday, March 30th, 9:30 AM - 1:00 PM - Prepare the sanctuary for Easter

Called to be good news for others, one powerful way to do this is to help with the distribution of the Eucharist at Mass. The action of the Eucharistic Minister is the template for life. What we do at Mass is what we are called to do beyond the Mass – to bring Christ to others.

The Lector helps to nourish our community with God’s words. Through proclamation by our Lectors, God once again speaks to us with words of love. Those words are comforting when we are in need, and they challenge us when we are going astray. Consider taking part in our proclamation at Mass.

If you like to sing or play an instrument, there is a place for you. We have three Sunday Masses with a choral/music ensemble: 8:00 a.m., 10:30 a.m., and 7:00 p.m.

Each group rehearses one hour before Mass. You may get involved at any time. Simply show up one hour before Mass and practice with the other music ministry volunteers or email Music Director, Joe Brough. There are also opportunities for cantors and accompanists. These do require an interview and audition.

The sacristan sets up, prepares, and carefully arranges the liturgical books, the vestments, and other things necessary for the celebration of Mass.
