Altar Servers
Assisting at the altar is a privilege. Open to girls and boys who have a strong desire to serve, are between 4th grade through high school, have received First Holy Communion, and have the support and committment from the parent(s). It also requires regular attendance at Mass, a willingness to pray aloud, and show revernece at the Altar of the Lord. Training occurs throughout the year in small groups.
Come Serve the Lord with Gladness!

Mass Readers (Lectors)
These ministers proclaim the Word of God during Mass and lead the Prayers of the Faithful. This Ministry is for Parishoners in good standing with the Catholic Church that are willing to prepare and study the Word of God to read at Mass, especially Saturday and Sunday Masses. The Word is a very personal communication from God to His people. Therefore, the Word of God proclaimed in the liturgy is the living Word with the power to nourish and transform both those who proclaim it and those who hear it. Proclaimers of the Word, readers, lend their voices for this personal communication, preparing themselves with sincere humility through prayer, study, and practice to faithfully convey what God intends. Training and approval by our Pastor, Fr. Pete Zalewski is required to become a reader. Preferred scheduling is available.
