Liturgical Ministries

If you would like to minister in one of the following areas, please contact Tricia Tranel
at [email protected].

Lectors

Lectors are members of the parish who proclaim the Word of God in our parish liturgies. They may also read introductions and/or announcements as needed. Interested adult and high school parishioners wishing to develop the skills needed for this ministry are welcome at any time.

Altar Servers

In addition to lectoring, altar serving is another student ministry available to our youth. This ministry is available to students in our parish (boys and girls) of any school (public or parochial) starting in the 4th grade. If your child(ren) desire to assist at our liturgies in this special way, please submit the sign-up form by clicking the button below.

Eucharistic Ministers

The true presence of Jesus Christ is available to us in the Holy Eucharist. Any adult or student who has already been confirmed is welcome to join in this ministry to distribute the Body and Blood of Jesus. Training is offered year-round. If you are interested in Eucharistic ministry for the homebound, please contact Pastoral Care Coordinator, Alice Noethe.

Ushers

Ushers traditionally greet people at Mass, assist the handicapped and elderly, take up the collection and find gift bearers for the offertory procession, tidy up as needed, and distribute bulletins after Mass. Both men and women of our parish are welcome to join this ministry.

Liturgical Environment

These ministers devote their efforts to creating a worship space that speaks of the liturgical season being celebrated – one of sacredness and hospitality. If you would like to join this ministry effort, please contact Mike and Jan DeMoully. New ministers are welcome at any time.

Music Ministry

These ministers assist the assembly in sung prayer at our parish liturgies as cantors, accompanists, choirs, ensemble groups and instrumentalists. New youth and adult music ministers are welcome at any time. We currently offer the following music ministry groups:

• Adult Choir - led by Terri Ellerbach
• Folk Group - led by Dianne Koch 
• Praise Group - led by Don Schiffer 
• Young Adult Choir- led by Carolyn and Isabelle Stratford

You can also particpate as a music ministry as a cantor, pianist, or instrumentalist! 

Not sure which group is the right fit?

Contact Tricia Tranel to help you find a group to join, or to find other ways to share your musical gifts!
