The role of an usher is to provide order and decorum within the church building during services. They assist in locating seating for attendees, as well as taking the collections. They arrange for the selection of representatives of the congregation to bring up the offerings of the congregation at the offertory of the Mass. The ushers will provide assistance should an emergency arise during a service (calling 911 etc.). They also arrange for the sacrament of the Eucharist to be brought to the seat of anyone unable to approach the Ministers of the Eucharist on their own accord. Finally, they help in the distribution of the parish bulletin at the end of Mass.
This ministry is open to men and women alike. If you would like to participate in this ministry please speak with one of the ushers.
