-
Art & Environment: Artists, craftspeople, and decorators prepare the worship space through the use of visual arts, creating an atmosphere which is beautiful and inviting to the assembly of believers.
-
Bread Baker: Bread bakers provide the work of human hands which make the bread that becomes the Body of Christ at Eucharist.
-
Drama/Dance: The Newman Players enhance the liturgy through dramatic proclamation of Scripture and creative movement.
-
Eucharistic Minister: In a spirit of reverence, Eucharistic Ministers share the Body and Blood of Christ with the assembly.
-
Greeter: As the Body of Christ assembles for worship, greeters welcome all who come to the feast, extending a warm smile and friendly "hello".
-
Lector: After careful preparation and prayer, lectors proclaim the scriptures (Word of God) during liturgical celebrations.
-
Liturgy Planning: The planning for the liturgical seasons involves studying the Scriptures, prayers, and our own traditions; making proposals for music, texts, environment and ritual movement; communicating the directions to the ministers and evaluating the season afterwards.
-
Mass Coordinator: In service to the assembly, Mass Coordinators prepare and clean the liturgical vessels and elements for worship.
-
Music: The music ministry is designed to serve the voice of the worship assembly. Vocalists and instrumentalists (keyboard, guitars, strings, brass, woodwinds and percussion) participate in weekly rehearsals and occasional workshops to develop excellence within the choirs and ensembles.
