Liturgical Ministries

The wonderful volunteers responsible for the Altar Linens ensure that care is taken when cleaning and preserving the beauty and life of the altar vestments and linens. Each week whose who care for the sacred cloths of the litury, do so with reverence and love.

Young people who are at least nine years old have the opportunity to function as lay ministers by reverently assisting the celebrant during Mass and at special liturgies throughout the year. Train

The Art and Environment Committee gathers to plan the environmental and art components of worship spaces according to the liturgical seasons of the year. Volunteers contribute their time and talents to plan, create, set up, remove and clean up presentations throughout the year.

Receiving Communion is a moment shared by both the minister and the receiver. The Eurcharistic Ministers at St. Elizabeth Ann Seton prayerfully serve the parish family by distributing the Body and the Blood of Christ during Mass. Trainings for this ministry are provided throught the year bor those who would like to share the Body and Blood of Christ.

"The eucharist is a gift to be given and received, the ritual interaction between the giver and receiver is an expression of the communion that lies at the heart of the Church's identity."
Margaret Mary Kelleher

The first face you will see as you enter the church will be one of our friendly greeters. These dedicated volunteers are the first touch of God's love visitors receive as they walk into the doors of the church. Greeters offer a kind word, a handshake, and a welcoming smile, and may be called upon to collect the offering, assist with the offertory, or prepare drink refreshments in the Gathering Space after Mass.

Lectors assist at Mass proclaiming scripture readings or serve as commentators at weekend Masses and Holy Days of obligation. Adults and youth with good voice quality, who enunciate clearly, and read with reverence for God’s word are encouraged to apply. Training provided. 

The Music Ministry inspires deeper prayer and participation in the Liturgy. Adult choirs are formed for the Christmas Eve Mass and Easter Vigil Mass. High school and middle school students are encouraged to join the 7 pm Sunday Youth Mass, which features a contemporary Christian music choir.  For more information contact: Susan Ramsower, Director of Music, 210.698.1941, or susan@seaschurch.com.
