LITURGY


Liturgical ministries provide a way for lay people to participate in the Mass and help make the Eucharistic Liturgy (Mass) as meaningful and beautiful as possible. The Eucharistic celebration is central to the life of our community. Mass is celebrated daily Tuesday through Friday as well as Saturday evenings and Sundays. See Mass Times and More for schedule.
