Liturgical Ministries
We invite you to reflect on how God is calling you to use your gifts and talents in service to the community. Some ministries require that you have celebrated at least your First Communion or also your Confirmation. You may be required to participate in the Virtus training program for protecting our children if the ministry you are interested in includes contact with children or vulnerable adults.
