Ushers and Greeters are Ministers of Hospitality
Ushers and Greeters are entrusted with promoting a sense of welcoming and belonging to all the faithful assembled for worship at Sacred Heart Catholic Parish. They are the first point of contact for the communal celebration of the Liturgy and because of this, should take special steps in being living representatives of the Parish Mission Statement.
Ministers of Hospitality minister to the entire community in a very active way. By freeing each person of their own personal impediments to the Mass through a welcoming atmosphere, ministers of hospitality take an active role in enabling each person to come to a freer expression of God in the Liturgy.
USHERS: seat parishioners when necessary. They are also responsible for the safekeeping of the money collected during the offertory. A ONE hour commitment at Mass on a rotation is requested.
GREETERS: welcome parishioners as they arrive at Church for Mass. They are also asked to distribute the Church Bulletin on the weekends as people enter our Church. A 30 minute commitment before Mass is requested.
