We have six teams of Ministers that rotate on an even and odd month schedule, so you are only on duty every other month. You can choose to work at the Mass you attend on a regular basis.
The Ministers of Welcome greet parishioners as they arrive at church, assist with seating, collect the community's offerings, provide a head count for the sacristans and office, and distribute bulletins after Mass. Following each liturgy, a general checkup is done throughout the church making sure it is in good order for the next service.
Total time commitment is 15 minutes before and approximately 10 minutes after each Mass.
Ministers consist of six teams (three of which work any month, one at each Mass), and rotate between even and odd months. Two members are trained in CPR and AED as certified by the Red Cross. Volunteers signing up for this ministry may choose for which Mass they will work.
