Acolytes assist in the celebration of the Liturgy by bearing the processional cross , to prepare the altar, also serving as Extraordinary Ministers of the Eucharis.

Lectors proclaim the readings of the Old and New Testaments prior to the Gospel or when a Deacon is not present, they also red the General Intercessions.

Extraordinary Ministers of the Eucharist assist in the distribution of both the Body and Blood of Christ to the assembly and, at times, bring the Eucharist to the homebound. 

Ministry of Music enhances the Liturgy through sharing of vocal and musical talents of the community.  Members serve as organist, cantors, musicians and members of the Ad Children’s Choirs.

Ministers of Hospitality, ushers and greeters, reserve the Christian tradition of welcoming the members of the congregation to the Liturgy, as well as maintaining a sese of order and reverence during service.

Sacristans prepare the “things necessary” for the celebration of the liturgy:  the books, the vestments, the vessels, the linens, the bread and wine.

Art & Environment – maintain and prepare the Sacred Space used for worship.
