“Be doers of the word and not hearers only.” (James 1:22) Being a lector is a very important form of liturgical ministry. The essence of our particular ministry is to proclaim the word of God to the assembly; not recite words. We do not merely read a printed page, such as a telephone book or a restaurant menu-we proclaim the word of God. When the Sacred Scriptures are read in the Church, God himself speaks to his people. You are responsible for helping to form the community at Mass. This is an awesome ministry guided by the Holy Spirit. Please consider joining us.
