Eucharistic Ministry

​Eucharistic Ministry consists of extraordinary ministers of Holy Communion (EMHC) who take the Eucharist to homebound and facility-bound Catholics in our parish boundaries. If you have great love and reverence for Jesus, truly present in the Blessed Sacrament and a compassionate heart for the sick, this outreach is for you!

Music Ministry

Music has an important role in our worship and liturgy, and we would like to invite you to be a part of it! Whether your gift is to sing, play an instrument or to lead a small choir, we can find a fit for you in our music ministry. Rehearsals are Tuesdays from 7:00-8:30 pm in the church.

Please email our music director, Sharon Long, with any questions: sharon-long@cdolinc.net

Liturgical Ministry

Liturgical Ministry invites you to partake in the Mass by being an acolyte, reader or lector, an altar server, a greeter or an usher. Acolytes and Lectors require training through the Diocese which takes place the first part of the year. Altar Server training is for all boys 4th grade and older and takes place in the Fall of the year at St. Michael School. Greeters and ushers are an integral part of the liturgy. Liturgical Ministry is a great way to serve and meet others in our parish.

Bereavement Ministry

Losing a loved one is an incredibly difficult experience.  Those who are grieving need prayers, support, and consolation, especially from their faith community.  St. Michael parish has a Bereave-ment Ministry to support parishioners who have lost a spouse, child, parent, or sibling; this ministry exercises two spiritual works of mercy: comforting the sorrowful and praying for the living and dead.  Please contact Joy if you are interested in this beautiful ministry.
