Ministers of Hospitality
Our ushers and greeters, also known as our Ministers of Hospitality, have the responsibility of greeting and welcoming all the parishioners as they enter the church.

Children's Liturgy
During the Sunday 10:00 a.m. Mass, Children’s Liturgy sessions are held to develop the children’s understanding of the Liturgy of the Word. The Liturgy is adapted to be made relevant to the lives and experiences of the young children and to prepare them for full participation in the Mass as they get older.
