Reader
The ministry of reader calls one to the profound responsibility of proclaiming the word of God at daily and Sunday liturgies and other special celebrations. One needs to be able to proclaim clearly and with meaning so that the assembly can easily hear and understand the sacred text.
Why should I do this?
The ministry of reader provides an avenue for sharing our talents with the Body of Christ. It is a way for each of us involved to grow closer to God as we pour over the readings in preparation. A faith enhancing experience!
Commitment:
Readers are assigned to a schedule. Please arrive 15 minutes before Mass to pray with the celebrant. Each person must attend a training session. The Church asks that you come prepared and dressed appropriately for the altar. If you are unable to attend, it is your responsibility to find a replacement.
