Art & Environment: By their knowledge of and interest in art, architecture and the
visually beautiful, these ministers assist in providing an appropriate,
liturgically correct setting for our worship inside and outside the church.

Feasts are signaled by Art & Environmental efforts.
Lectors: Readers proclaim the Liturgy of the Word with dignity and
reverence. In doing so they prepare the Assembly to receive the message of
Scripture and homily at the Mass.

Music Ministry: Choir members, cantors, instrumentalists help the assembly
pray in song and music, adding beauty and solemnity
to the Eucharistic celebration. Currently we have
serving adult and funeral choirs. We always look for more members, of all
ages, to expand our choir groups.

bring Communion to the sick throughout the parish community.

Ushers/Greeters: They play an important
part in the smooth functioning of the service.

emergencies are among their duties.

Mass Tapers: Through the good graces of radio station WMSA, we are able to
tape our Sunday 9:30 am Mass for broadcast at 6:30 pm the
same evening. Shut-ins can keep their connection to the
local parish. Standard taping equipment in the sacristy
is easy to use. Tapers rotate weekends.
John Dumas
A Sunday mass is taped for broadcast on WMSA radio for the homebound.
Sanctuary Cleaners: Volunteers in teams of two wash Mass
vessels, change
altar linens, and keep the sanctuary clean and in
order. They are assigned every six weeks.

Sacred Heart Garden Club: If you like the outdoors, have a green thumb, and like to
see the parish grounds looking beautiful, this is the ministry for you. A
spring, summer and fall activity, it has brought many compliments to the
Parish.
