The Parish Community of Good Shepherd and Saint Joseph Churches

LITURGICAL MINISTRIES

THE LITURGY COMMITTEE promotes and coordinates matters of worship and spiritual development.  The committee generally meets once a month with additional meetings as necessary.

EXTRAORDINARY MINISTERS OF HOLY COMMUNION assist the priest at mass with distribution of Holy Communion. They also bring the Eucharist to the homebound.

LECTORS proclaim the Word of God at mass giving spirit and breath to scripture.

ALTAR SERVERS assist the priest to ensure the smooth flow of the Liturgy. They serve at Sunday masses, Stations of the Cross during Lent, and at other special celebrations.

THE MUSIC MINISTRY serves to enhance the experience of those attending mass. The music, through vocal and instrumental expression, deepens the experience and prayerfulness of the Liturgy by helping to tap into the emotional element of prayer.

HOSPITALITY MINISTERS greet parishioners and visitors as they enter the church, take up the collection, direct the movement of people (such as for receiving Communion) and look after those with special needs.
