Liturgical Ministries

Altar Servers

The participation of Altar Servers in our liturgy is a long-standing tradition in the Catholic Church that has its roots in vocational training. This is a wonderful opportunity for our young ladies and young men, grade 5 and older, to experience Mass from “inside” the Liturgy and grow in Christ. Read More

Eucharistic Ministers

Extraordinary Ministers of Communion in St. Lawrence O’Toole Parish are involved in the center of the Church's life. They assist the Ordinary Ministers of Communion, the priests and deacons, in bringing Eucharist to the residents of the Nursing Home, the homebound, and distributing Jesus to the faithful at mass.

Music Ministry
 

Music holds an integral place within the liturgy: It unifies and heightens our response to the Word of God. The array of opportunities to make music in our church challenges those with years of musical experience while offering the less experienced a new way to express their faith. Participation in one of our groups provides our parishioners the chance to contribute to our communal life in an active and vibrant way. Above all, by praising God with our voices, we become instruments through which God moves and speaks.

Children's Choir
Singing is an important part of our Catholic faith, and having our children learn the traditions and history of the Mass through song is an incredibly valuable investment we can make as a parish community. Read More
