Coffee and donuts are a wonderful way to mingle with and get to know your fellow parishioners. After Sunday masses, coffee and pastries are offered to gather people together and share fellowship. Different groups are invited to be responsible for sponsoring the treats and fundraising is sometimes used for teen groups during the gathering.
Lectors are used at each mass to proclaim the Word of God. There is a training and schedule. Readings, prayers of the faithful, mass parts and songs are announced. Junior lectors are used at children masses. Often pairs of lectors are used during a single mass.
The ministry is one where prayer is offered through the use of one’s body. All motions are an attempt at interpreting the song and is in itself an expression of prayer. No special training is necessary and practices are needed to learn choreography.
Liturgy Committee meets monthly to evaluate liturgical celebrations and plan future liturgies including symbols, music and décor.
The Mary statue is offered to parishioners to take home and add to their family devotions for the week. A sign-up sheet is available.
