REWORK

It is my intention to have many more of our people serve as lectors, Eucharistic Ministers, and mass servers.  I plan to do this in the fall when school and the church year begin back.  In the meantime, we need people to sign up for all of these ministries.  The lists are posted on the bulletin board in the back of church.  It is a great privilege to serve in any of these ministries.
