Ministers of Holy Communion assist in the distribution of the consecrated Body and Blood of Christ to the gathered faithful during the Eucharistic Celebration. Our Diocese has specific guidelines in appointing and training those faithful who are called to this special ministry. The Diocese of Wilmington offers required formation classes throughout the year. Training continues at the parish level to prepare new Ministers of Holy Communion in their specific duties. We also have a very active group of trained parishioners who serve as Ministers of Holy Communion to the Sick. They visit hospitals, nursing homes, as well as our home-bound parishioners.

PASTORAL CARE AT HOME:  Are you or a family member or friend, sick or otherwise unable to take part in Mass and the Sacraments?  The parish has lay ministers of the sick who will bring communion to the homebound on a regular basis.  We visit the Nursing Centers and Atlantic General Hospital.  Please call the Parish Office so these parishioners may be ministered to.

The Lector proclaims the Word of God in the Liturgy of the Word during Mass and special services including Advent and Lenten Penance Services, Eucharistic Holy Hours, and our Parish Mission. Lectors proclaim at daily Masses, Monday thru Saturday. In conjunction with the Diocese of Wilmington guidelines for Ministers of the Word the Parish has an established training session for new Lectors and a complete review for those who were Lectors in their previous parish.

Our parish is always open to the special ministry provided by our Young Adults as Altar Servers at weekend Masses as well as Adult Altar Servers who serve during the weekday Masses. Young people in grades 4-12 are invited to be a part of this ministry. Training of altar servers is done by Mrs. Margo Carrara. Adult Altar Servers are trained by other Adult Servers. Please contact the parish office for more information.

Art and Environment is a central focal point of our worship experiences. Our environment enhances and supports the Rites of the Church. Those assisting include persons with ability in floral design, art design, and construction in many mediums including fabric and wood, interior decoration and decoration installers and seamstresses and sometimes just strength. Those responsible for Art and Environment also understand the flow of the Liturgical Year - they work magic as the worship space transforms from season to season and feast to feast, warming our senses with the wonder of God.

Our parish music ministry is a vital part of our worship experiences. Music is a form of prayer and all are encouraged to participate. To facilitate the active participation of the faithful the Church sees the need for various music groups. The following are part of our Parish Music Ministry.

CANTORS: Cantors are those who lead the gathered faithful in song. Those who wish to be cantors are trained in their specific duties and on going music study is provided by the Director of Music.

ADULT CHOIR: The Adult Choir is open to any parishioner who loves to sing in glory and praise of our Lord. No auditions are required. The choir sings at weekend Masses as well as special Holy Days and Holy Week. It is open to High School Students thru those who are young at heart. The choir rehearses weekly on Thursdays from 7 – 8:30 p.m.  Contact choir director Joann Harvey at 443-880-8889 for information.

Ushers and Greeters

Our Ushers and Greeters are the first ministers to put a face on our parish. They embody the warmth, the friendliness, and the openness of our parish community as they greet those who walk through our doors. Ushers are always ready to assist in any way. Our Ushers and Greeters consist of Men, Women, Couples, Families and Young People. Training and guidance is provided.

The Altar Guild is open to anyone who wishes to help keep the altar linens, candles, holy water, sanctuary furnishings and statuary. Duties are performed once a week by rotating teams of 2 to 3 persons.
