Liturgical Ministries

By virtue of baptism, each of us is called to minister to the needs of one another. One way to serve is through one of the Liturgical Ministries. To meet the spiritual needs of our community and to make our liturgies truly life-giving celebrations requires the gifts of everyone. Our hope is that you will prayerfully consider becoming a part of one of these ministries.

HUMILITY

Today Jesus teaches us how to come to his heavenly wedding feast, not by crowding forward but by seeking a place after everyone else. Humility, the confidence to be oneself, is a lifetime’s work. This strategy, if used, allows all to find their best place before God. Jesus himself did this at the Last Supper, doing the slaves’ job of washing the apostles’ feet. “The heart of a sensible person will reflect on parables, an attentive ear is the sage’s dream.” Are we, are you, listening to the Lord today?
