Liturgical Ministries

Extraordinary Ministers of Holy Communion, commonly referred to as a Eucharistic Minister, are lay people who assist with the distribution of the Most Precious Body and Blood of Our Lord Jesus Christ. The EMOHC must be a confirmed Catholic (having received the Sacraments of Baptism, First Communion, and Confirmation) in good standing.

EMOHC may also choose to serve in the Ministry of the Sick - those who bring Holy Communion to the sick in hospitals, to those in nursing homes, and assisted living facilities and/or to the homebound. You must be 16 years of age or older to serve in this ministry.

Lectors are responsible for proclaiming God’s Word, excluding the Gospel, during the Mass. God speaks to His people through the Word spoken, therefore Lectors must love the Scriptures, be competent readers, and adequately prepare so they can proclaim the Word with dignity, clarity, and understanding.

Altar Servers serve at the altar and assist the priest and deacon with sincere devotion and decorum in the spirit of the liturgy. They may carry the incense, processional cross, lighted candles at daily and weekend Eucharistic celebrations, sacraments, funeral Masses, benediction, and prayer services. Training sessions are held for new servers and for current altar servers interested in additional responsibilities. It is a great honor and privilege to be able to come and serve God in this ministry.
