I want to extend an invitation to everyone—yes, each person in the parish!—to become a part of our liturgical ministry program. Serving in a liturgical ministry is a great way to deepen your participation in and understanding of the Sunday Mass. Signups and Training Schedule are online at www.stclarechurch.org/ministry.
(When signing up for training sessions, please be careful to not click on any ads in Signup Genius. Your credit card information is not needed to sign up for trainings.)
These ministries are currently short-staffed…
*Extraordinary Ministers of Holy Communion
*Children’s Liturgy of the Word Leaders - Our program is “plug and play” for leader; very little preparation is needed! Have questions before committing? Get in touch with me!
*Nursery Leaders & Helpers,
*Ushers - female, male, young and not young!
Take a leap and sign up! Some may talk themselves out of signing up by thinking that “other people will take care of that job.” As I’ve pointed out above, several ministries need your help! Don’t wait for the next person – be that person!
Stephen Eros, Director of Liturgy & Music
