Parish Office | (440) 461-0066
This group provides a Liturgy of the Word celebration for children ages 4-8 to help them more fully understand the Word of God. Adults and older teens are needed to volunteer as leaders and readers. This ministry takes place during the 4:30 pm Saturday Mass and 10:00 am Sunday Mass, September through May. We are currently looking to re-establish this ministry. If you are interested in volunteering, please contact Meg Zetzer or the parish office.
CHURCH ART AND ENVIRONMENT COMMITTEE
This committee enhances the liturgy and prayer of the church through the arts and care of the church sanctuary. It is open to anyone who is interested in art and liturgical design. The committee meets at various times depending on the liturgical season.
EXTRAORDINARY MINISTERS OF HOLY COMMUNION
Parish Office | (440) 461-0066
The Eucharist is the “source and summit of the Christian life.” It is necessary that a person considering this ministry have a strong devotion to the Holy Eucharist and be willing to participate in some pastoral training in order to more assist with the distribution of Holy Communion.
EUCHARISTIC MINISTRY TO PARISHIONERS WHO ARE HOMEBOUND
Parishioners who are Extraordinary Ministers of Holy Communion are needed to bring Holy Communion to those who are unable to attend Mass. Usually, a minister makes a visit once per week. Contact Catharine Zbiegien
GREETERS
Our ministry of greeting considers the whole dimension of welcoming…that is, how we make people feel when they come to worship. Are they comfortable—physically, psychologically and spiritually, from the appearance of the facility to the ease of finding the appropriate place; to being greeted and accepted yet not smothered; to feeling the joy and anticipation of the congregation and the experience of God’s grace; to a liturgy that makes sense; to a sense of opportunities for personal and spiritual growth. A Greeter is the first in the line of those who welcome those coming to worship on Sunday and assist regular and new worshipers alike to feel as though this truly is a place to call home.
