If you have some time consider helping your fellow parishioners as you serve the Lord while attending Mass. Some of our regulars have moved away, passed on or are gone for the summer. Please consider volunteering: Eucharistic Ministers, Lectors, Ushers & Alter Servers help during the Mass.
Sacristans have more training and help set up before mass and clean up after. Once trained, you can volunteer for one or more Masses each weekend or weekday. Serve the Lord. To help, Speak to Sacristan Pat Webster or call the office 941.778.4769 during the week.
