Readers and Lectors proclaim the Word of God. Our mission is to be a worthy instrument of God’s Word, to celebrate the tradition of faith, and to honor the Scriptures by proclaiming them effectively. Our quiet confidence and dignity enhances the ritual of the Mass, promoting meditation and prayerful recollection on what we are reading. Lectors receive training to participate in the Mass and are scheduled on a rotating basis at their preferred Mass time.
