Art and Enironment

Volunteers work to enhance the atmosphere for worship by creating and maintaining seasonal decorations in the church. Duties include watering and arranging flowers, ironing, polishing brass, changing seasonal banners and wreaths, and cleaning torches used in the church to provide candlelight. People who have specific skills such as flower arranging, woodworking, or sewing are welcome, although these skills are not a necessity. Members may be active only during the "busy times" of Christmas and the Easter Season or they may do jobs consistently throughout the year.

Extraordinary Ministers of the Eucharist

Assist at all Sunday and weekday Masses, bring Communion to the infirm and elderly who cannot come to Mass and to patients at the Pembroke Hospital. As we proceed toward the reception of Holy Communion under bothspecies, we find that we have a particular need for Extraordinary Ministers of the Eucharist. Training is provided prior to beginning the ministry.
