JOIN THE MINISTRY
The Ministry of the Church Ushers is the hands and feet of the Liturgy. Its primary role is the help with the flow of the Mass from beginning to the end. We, as ushers, help maintain order and establish proper decorum in our place of worship. Ushers attend to the needs of the congregation in order for the faithful to experience the joy of worship.
A brief description of some of the responsibilities of an usher includes:
welcoming and greeting parishioners
assisting in seating, if needed
preparing incense
inviting others to be the gifts (bread and wine) bearer
bringing forward the collection baskets for offerings
supporting other ministries such as the EMOEs with directing the flow of parishioners during the distribution of Holy Communion
distributing the weekly bulletins and other reading material that helps keep our community informed
maintaining the sanctity of the church by arranging the gifts table as well as the ambassadors tables, etc.
most of all, ushers bring a smile to all people and are a welcoming presence to all parishioners
