Parish Ministries
Greeters & Readers
Lay Eucharistic Minister
Acolytes and Crucifers
The people who serve as greeters and readers are the face of the church to our congregation. We have a large and wonderful group of people doing this ministry, but they would welcome others who would like to share in it. You can specify which of the functions you would like to do, or try your hand at both.

Although we have traditionally had our youth as Acolytes and Crucifers, adults serve in this capacity in many churches, and it would be great to be able to have a crucifer every Sunday.

The Lay Eucharistic Ministers, or “LEM” for short, are the ones who assist Father Mike at the altar, and serve the chalice to parishioners at the altar rail. A brief training is required so that you will not spill the wine on the parishioners. This is an especially gratifying function and you even get to wear a white robe while doing it!!

From time to time we have gardening to do, such as sprucing up the beds, fertilizing, planting seasonal plantings, or doing some maintenance in the St. Francis garden. The more hands the better so that we can spread the work around. Our grounds are more beautiful and well kept than they have been in a while, but we can always use more beautification.
