The lector has the important and privileged responsibility of proclaiming God's Word at Mass. As a lector, there is preparation before Mass; proclaiming aloud the readings, Prayers of the Faithful, and practicing unusual and difficult words and names. The lector is to proclaim God's Word clearly, prayerfully and intelligently at Mass. Be sure to pick up your copy of Workbook for Lectors. Training is provided.

Ministers of Holy Communion

Coordinator (Spanish): Juan Gonzalez 509.929.0674

Serving at the altar of God is a most sacred way of participating at Mass. Communion ministers function as servants to the Body of Christ, God's people. The primary focus of their ministry is to serve our parish with fidelity, reverence and love. At the Mass they choose someone to bring up the bread and wine at the Offertory. Training is provided.

Ushers
Ushers collect the Offertory and assist those bringing up the Bread and Wine. Also, they help with seating when warranted.
