Eucharistic Adoration is an affirmation of our faith. Through this vigil of prayer given to Christ who is present in the Eucharist, we give witness to our belief that God is dwelling with His people. Adoration takes place from 5 PM to 7 PM in the Church every Wednesday. Forty Hours of Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament occurs four times a year (inquire at the Church Office).

This ministry gives the opportunity to take part in the Liturgy of the Eucharist. Extraordinary Ministers of Holy Communion (EMCs) provide Communion during Mass. They also provide Communion to other places within our parish. Members must be Catholics who have received their sacraments. If married they must have done so in the Church. Applications approved by the pastor receive a day of training by the Archdiocese. The tenure of EMCs is three years and is subject to renewal.

This ministry offers members of the Parish the opportunity to minister to the Parish by reading the Liturgy at Mass. A lector spreads the Good News and gives witness to the central role of the Word of God in the life of the Church. Lectors assist with the weekday, Saturday night and Sunday Masses.

The Liturgical Art Ministry cares for the interior beauty of our church. Throughout the year this ministry maintains the altar vestments that adorn the church. This includes liturgical adornments in the sanctuary like banners and flower arrangements. They also handle seasonal decorations during Christmas and Easter.

This ministry provides our church with the gift of music. They welcome parishioners with musical talent to serve our Masses and special events. Several groups make up the Music Ministry. They include: * Adult Choir (Sundays at 10:30 AM) * Spanish Choir Gloria a Dios (Saturdays at 7 PM) * Folk Group (Saturdays at 5:30 PM) * Children's Choir * Teen Choir

Every year volunteers come together and put on the Passion of Jesus as part of our Easter liturgy. Volunteers include adults, teens and children. Casting calls begin in January. This includes those interested in non-performance roles (audio, visual, costumes, props, etc.). Performance roles include singing, speaking, and non-speaking parts. No acting experience required.

Ushers are the first people to welcome those who come to the Celebration of the Eucharist. Other responsibilities include taking up the collection and directing the Communion procession during Mass. After Mass they distribute the parish bulletins and other materials. Volunteers are always welcome. Training provided.
