As we commission our Liturgical Ministers this weekend, I’d like to extend an invitation to all of you who might consider volunteering. It can be very rewarding to serve others at Mass and those who are homebound. As Catholics, we serve God in many ways. Some tend to the sick and homebound. Some work with teens to help them seek Jesus and develop a good relationship with Him. Others do good works with the poor and those less fortunate. Still others work for peace and justice.

Pope Francis has issued a decree changing the way that the Holy Thursday foot-washing rite is celebrated around the world. The decree was published today by the Congregation for Divine Worship and the Discipline of the Sacraments and signed by prefect Cardinal Robert Sarah. The decree says that the rite should no longer be limited to men.

What if? There were no altar servers to carry the cross or prepare the altar; no musicians to help us pray by singing; no greeters to welcome us; no ushers to take up collections and help seat those who need assistance; no Lectors to proclaim the Word of the Lord, and no Extraordinary Ministers of Holy Communion to distribute the Lord’s Body and Blood? Our churches would go undressed for the seasons without flowers during each changing liturgical season.

I wish that the Jubilee Indulgence may reach each one as a genuine experience of God's mercy, which comes to meet each person in the Face of the Father who welcomes and forgives, forgetting completely the sin committed. – Pope Francis

We need your help in making our churches look beautiful for the Christmas Season. Won’t you consider making a donation toward a poinsettia plant in remembrance of a loved one or just as a gift from you? Special Christmas Flower Envelopes are available in the vestibules or in the back of church. All of your gifts will be greatly appreciated.

Please consider joining as a new Greeter or Eucharistic Minister. We need a large group of willing parishioners so that each person does not get called on too often. No prior experience necessary! We will be happy to arrange training from one of the veteran volunteers.
