Lord, in your love you gather your people this day, help me to serve them in a Christ like manner, even as your son Jesus served those who gathered about him. Make me prayerful, patient, helpful and understanding, and may I radiate the joy that faith brings as I serve their needs.

Did you know that the ministry of ushers/greeters is the oldest lay ministry in the Catholic Church? In the Old Testament, they were called "gatekeepers." Their ministry was so important that they were given living quarters in the temple!  

Ushers are an important part of each Mass. The Ministry of Ushers provides a service to the parishioners, visitors and leaders of worship at all liturgies.

Duties of ushers include:

• Greeting and welcoming parishioners as they enter the Church
• Helping parishioners find seats
• Gathering and securing collections
• Assisting the disabled and helping anyone in need
• Distribute bulletins at the conclusion of Mass.
