Liturgical Ministries

These ministries and volunteer opportunities are formed through Altar Servers, Eucharistic Ministers, Cantors, and Lectors, as well as our two fiscal ministries; the Ways & Means Comittee and the Development Committee.

Liturgy Committee

The goal of the Liturgy Committee is to plan parish worship so that each participant finds a full, meaningful celebration each time we gather to worship as a faith community.  It is hoped that from that celebration, we may go out and live in the true Christian spirit and in the spirit of our patron, St. Francis of Assisi.

The Liturgy Committee meets several times a year.  If you are interested in joining, please contact Fr. Carrion.  

If you are interested in becoming a Eucharistic Ministers, Cantor, and/or Lector, please contact Fr. Carrion.   
If you would like further information or if you would like to join the committee, please call the church office.

Altar Servers

If you have any interest in becoming an adult or youth altar server, please contact Phil Pucher through our parish office.  

Folk Group

The Folk Group provides music for the 9:00 AM Mass.  The goal is to encourage the congregation to join more fully in the celebration of liturgy by singing.  The Folk Group practices every Tuesday at 7:00 PM and sings throughout the year-usually breaking for vacation in August.

Our group is open to any person who enjoys singing! Come to a rehearsal and learn a few songs to see if the music ministry is for you.  Join for a season, or join all year-round.

Let your light shine! Reach out to Dave if you have any interest in joining! His email is: david.rybczynski@archbalt.org

All Are Welcome!!!

Ways & Means Committee

The purpose of the Ways and Means Committee is to plan, promote, and implement interesting, and fun events to raise funds to support our parish.

Work, yes! But the camaraderie of our members and the results we obtain make it more than worthwhile.  Our goal is to solicit and obtain the participation of everyone making for more enjoyment and less labor for all involved.  Being a member of the Ways and Means Committee requires no special talents--just a willingness to work and a friendly nature to enjoy the many new friends you will make while you help our parish!

Monthly meetings are held to plan and coordinate our annual fund-raising events.  We'd love to have you - please get in touch with the Church Office to get involved!

Development Committee

The Parish Development Committee embraces the concerns of a finance committee as well as the overall planning for future parish needs and necessary expenditures.  Recognizing that  the ordinary income along with benefits' income do not provide for extraordinary expenses, the Development Committee, in addition to the annual stewardship campaign and Lenten Appeal, has also undertaken other fundraising campaigns.

Members are appointed by the pastor and include the two parish corporators. The  Development Committee meets monthly.

Members:
Pastor: Fr. Patrick Carrion
Parish Corporators: Edward Angeletti and Frank Lidinsky
SFA School Principal: Dr. Karmen Collins
