It is through the Lectors that God’s
Living Word is proclaimed to His people. To be a Lector,
takes some preparation.
Our Lectors prepare for their proclamation of the Word
in both a practical and spiritual manner. During the
week, prior to Sunday Mass, they familiarize themselves
with the scripture readings and ensure an understanding
of each selection so that they can effectively
communicate the meaning. Their next step is to read them
several times both silently and aloud.
Lectors are assigned to serve at a particular Mass time
of their choice. A six-month schedule is mailed to
members of this Ministry. Lectors are responsible to
find a substitute in the event they cannot read on a
particular date for which they are scheduled. A Ministry
Listing is provided to assist in this effort.
A brief training session is provided.
