Minister of the Word (Lectors)

Ministers of the Word:

Attached is the Minister of Word schedule for period covering:

Please read the following:

  • The Gospel Book will be used to in the procession of Mass
  • The Lectionary is put at the Ambo by the first lector before Mass
  • Procession after Mass, do not carry out any book
  • All Ministers are asked to sign in by fifteen minutes before Mass
    At 15 minutes of Mass a replacement will be assigned.
  • Respect the time before Mass in the Sacristy as a time of preparation.
    It is essential the Sacristy area be in a state of prayer and quietness,
    as we prepare for the celebration of Mass.
  • If for some reason, you cannot attend the Mass you are scheduled for,
    please get a substitute or call me and I can help look.
  • Please do not call someone already scheduled. It may put them
    in an uncomfortable position and feel they need to attend two Masses.
  • Please be aware of dress code as you participate in this ministry (no Levi's/ Jeans).

Ministers of the Word

  • Need to prepare to proclaim the Word a few day s be fore Mass
  • Announce the Reading, with head up, facing the community.
  • Remember to proclaim slowing and loudly. Pause after announcing
    the reading and at th end; before the " Word of th e Lord;
    Gestures are not necessary.
  • Reader 2 to the Ambo "after" the Creed has been recited.

Thank you for your interest and participation in the Ministry of the Word and time you give to our Parish Community.
