On the Feast of Christ the King, Sunday, November 24, we will be commissioning all our worship ministries (altar servers, hospitality ministries, lectors, extraordinary ministers, musicians and choirs, and those who prepare our church environment) as we look forward to beginning our new liturgical year December 1, the First Sunday of Advent. In preparation, Father Phil would like to invite all of our worship ministers and those who would like to share in these ministries, to a 45-minute gathering on Wednesday, November 20 at 6:30 pm in the Church. Father Phil will begin with a presentation summarizing Pope Francis’ new encyclical on the Sacred Heart titled “He loved us.” After this, we invite our Extraordinary Ministers of the Eucharist, Lectors and Ushers to briefly gather to share with current and new ministers. Each of our worship ministers will need to have background checks and take safe environment training. If you are unable to attend these sessions due to your schedule, we understand and ask you to please contact us so that we can update you. Thank you for sharing in our worship ministries and serving our wonderful parish community. God bless you!
