Our Lectors answer God's call to proclaim the Good News of Jesus Christ to the community of Our Lady of Peace at the Saturday evening, Sunday, holiday, and Holy Day Liturgies. They welcome the assembly to the House of God and proclaim the first and second readings along with the Prayers of the Faithful. If there are important announcements to be made, they are made the the Lector.
Time commitments are: approximately one Mass per month and necessary time to familiarize oneself with the readings and their meaning. A clear speaking voice and the ability to speak before a large group is helpful, but more importantly, a love of and desire to know more about the Word of God will qualify you to participate in this ministry.
We also train young members of the parish to read at special children's Masses.
If you are a new parishioner here or were once a Lector in your former parish, please consider becoming a Lector here at Our Lady of Peace. Just call or email Kim Hoover.
