St. Matthew’s is a people called into community by Christ in the Eucharistic liturgy. United in our Catholic faith, we seek to love one another as Christ has loved us (Jn13:34), through service, teaching, witness and sacrifice.

REMEMBER:

  • Arrive at the church at least 15 minutes before Mass begins
  • If you arrive after Mass begins, you surrender your duty as a Lector for that week & your Lector partner will act as 1st and 2nd Lector.
  • Check in before Mass so Father and your fellow Lector will know you are there.
  • Remain in the sacristy for prayer with the ministry team before Mass starts
  • Please be seated in a pew in the center aisle. Approaching the altar from the center flows  smoother & more naturally.
  • If Deacon Kim is serving at your Mass he carries the Gospel Book in the procession and reads the Prayers of the Faithful.
  •  

Proper preparation, meditation and prayer of your readings will help your proclamation reflect that the Lord indeed has given you the gifts and skills necessary to proclaim his words. You will then be able to live the words from Isaiah "The Lord God has given me a well-trained tongue" with self confidence and poise.

 

If you have any questions, be sure to contact me. I'm happy to be of service and am always open to suggestions.

 

Thank you for your gift to St. Matthews.

 

Peace,

Debbie Seeman
