Liturgical Ministries - St. Elizabeth Catholic Church
Introduction
Welcome to St. Elizabeth Catholic Church, a vibrant community dedicated to serving the Quivira Heights area. Our liturgical ministries play an instrumental role in our church, enabling us to foster faith and beliefs while bringing our community closer to God.
Ministry Opportunities
1. Altar Servers
Our Altar Servers ministry provides an opportunity for dedicated individuals to assist during Mass. Altar servers play an essential role in ensuring the smooth flow of liturgical ceremonies, supporting the priest, and enhancing the worship experience for all attendees.
2. Lectors
Our Lectors ministry offers a chance for individuals with a passion for proclaiming the Word of God to participate actively in our liturgical celebrations. Lectors are responsible for reading the Scriptures and leading the congregation in reflection and prayer.
3. Eucharistic Ministers
The Eucharistic Ministers ministry invites members to distribute the Body and Blood of Christ during the Holy Communion. As a Eucharistic minister, you will play a crucial role in ensuring that the sacrament is reverently and meaningfully shared with the community.
4. Ushers and Greeters
Our Ushers and Greeters ministry focuses on creating a warm and welcoming environment for all who enter our church. These volunteers assist with seating, providing information, and ensuring that everyone feels comfortable and included during our liturgical celebrations.
5. Choir and Music Ministry
Our Choir and Music Ministry enriches our liturgical celebrations through beautiful hymns and sacred music. As a member of our choir or music ministry, you will have the opportunity to use your musical talents to enhance the spiritual experience of our community.
6. Sacristans
The Sacristans ministry involves the behind-the-scenes preparation and maintenance of our liturgical space. Sacristans work meticulously to ensure that the altar, sacred vessels, and liturgical items are properly prepared and organized for each Mass.
