When sacred scripture is read in the church, God, Himself, speaks to his people. Therefore the reading from the word of God are to be listened to reverently by everyone, for they are an element of the greatest importance in the liturgy.
If you are a good reader and feel called to proclaim the sacred scripture at our liturgies, we are interested in you. Our parish can use a few more good lectors.
The ministry is open to parishioners who are at least 14 years of age, catholics who have received First Holy Communion and Confirmation, who lead a life of faith, are reverential, of good moral character, free from canonical penalty legitimately imposed or declared, have the necessary ability and talent to proclaim the word of God and if married, be in a valid marriage according to the law of the catholic church.
Training in ministry, scripture, liturgy and skills building are offered during the year, as needed. If you feel called to exercise this ministry, please contact the rectory office.
