Liturgy/Environment
Planning the liturgy and decorating the Church according to the liturgical season.
Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults
The Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults is a resoration of the ancient practice of initiation in the Church. Focused on conversion, candidates entered an extended period of formation and probation. The community ritually celebrated the conversion at various points on the journey, culminating with the celebration of baptism, confirmation and eucharist at the Easter Vigil. An extended catechesis followed this to help the newly initiated to live the commitment they made: lives of justice, service and charity as witnesses of the reign of God.
Teachers, class aides, and office support needed to share our faith with children and adult parishioners.
Saturday Saints
Keeping buildings clean and maintain the landscape. Care for the altar linens and vestments.
Hospital Ministry
The Visit and pray with the sick to console them, Eucharistic Ministeres to take the Blessed Sacrament to the patients.
The Youth Ministry is designed to empower the youth in our parish community to live as disciples of Jesus Christ. This program offers teens in Grades 9 -12 to gather with their peers to share their faith and have fun in a supportive atmosphere. Teens are encouraged to participate in Youth Nights and Youth Mass, service projects, and Vicariate and Diocesan Youth events.
