The three ministries
Take one Mass a month, or more. The schedule is built around what you offer.
Eucharistic Ministers. Extraordinary Ministers of Holy Communion serve at Mass, and several also carry the Eucharist afterward to parishioners who cannot get to church. Serving at Mass and serving at a bedside are the same ministry pointed in two directions, and many parishioners do both.
Ushers. Welcoming people as they arrive, seating latecomers, taking up the collection, and being the person a visitor can ask. For many newcomers an usher is the first parishioner they meet.
Lectors. Proclaiming the Scripture readings at Mass. The parish provides the workbook and the training.
