Liturgical Ministry
The liturgical ministries at Our Lady of Grace offer many opportunities to worship and serve. We welcome all who have a true desire to minister. Extraordinary Ministers of Holy Communion, Ministers of the Word, ushers and altar servers operate on a rotating schedule. Enroll in our Ministry Scheduler Pro software and select which ministries you are interested in being trained in, and a parish representative will reach out to you to help you with the process. Currently, we are in need of greeters, ushers, lectors, altar servers, Extraordinary Ministers of Holy Communion, Sacristans, and coordinators for our monthly baptism liturgies.

Ushers
We welcome teens and older, male and female, to this ministry! Ushers are the face of hospitality and take care of a variety of needs before, during and after Mass. A kind smile and a desire to serve is all that is needed!
Church Environment Volunteers
Help beautify the Church, particularly during key Liturgical times, such as Christmas and Easter. There are weekly needs such as watering plants and changing basic decor and seasonal tasks such as decorating for Christmas.
