Make Altar Serving a Part of Your Lenten Journey
During Lent, we will have training sessions for children in grade 4 who are interested in being altar servers. If you are interested in serving this ministry, please attend one of the training sessions offered on Saturday, March 23, at 4:15pm or Sunday, March 24, at 11:30am. Questions? Contact Laura Root at rootpelfrey@live.com.
Holy Thursday
Father would like to wash your feet! As part of the Holy Thursday mass, Father washes the feet of twelve people. If you are interested in being one of the twelve, please contact the parish office to volunteer. The mass begins at 7pm on March 28, and you will need to arrive 20 minutes early for instructions.
Easter Mass Volunteers!
Father Crispin invites children to help with our Easter Sunday 10:30am liturgy! Roles include readers, gift bearers and ushers. We also need a few adults to assist and guide the children! Please sign up here. Questions? Contact Julia Rudden at jrudden@stjohnsea.org
