July: Month of Ministries

The month of July is our parish Month of Ministries — a time to prayerfully consider how each of us is called to serve the Body of Christ here at St. Mary’s. Every baptized member of this community has a gift to offer, and our parish flourishes when those gifts are placed at the Lord’s disposal. We warmly invite you to explore and join any of the following ministries: ✦ Lectors, ✦ Ushers, ✦ Ministers of the Cup, ✦ Altar Servers, ✦ Choir Members, ✦ Gift Bearers, ✦ CCD Teachers. A sign-up sheet is available in the gathering space, or you are most welcome to contact the parish office for more information. No special experience is required — only a willing heart.
