They also ask parishioners to bring up the Gifts, greet people at the door, and are available for emergency situations should they arise. Ushers serve at both regular and special Masses on Holy days. New ushers receive training from longstanding ushers and can usher at the Mass they usually attend. When regular ushers know they will be unable to serve, they alert their fellow ushers of their upcoming absence. There are no regular meetings or dues.

OUR PARISH Staff Parish Information Our Parish St. Athanasius School Mass Schedule Our Parish Prayer: Heart Speaks to Heart "O God, we are one with You. You have taught us that if we are open to one another, You dwell in us. In accepting one another wholeheartedly, we love You with our whole being. Fill us then with love, and let us be bound together with love. Help us to preserve this openness with all our hearts." Lord, we thank You for the gift of our St. John Henry Newman Parish community and for our exceptional histories, traditions and people. Help us to be a thriving faith community that fervently acts on Your will, always lifting our hearts to You in thanks and praise, and using our hands to serve others. Through Your son Jesus Christ, His Immaculate mother Mary and through the intercession of St. Athanasius, St. Joan of Arc and St. John Henry Newman, we ask for Your heavenly blessing on our parish and our people.

SACRISTANS Christian Family Movement Arts & Environment Altar Serving MINISTRIES HOME Contemplative Prayer Lectors Eucharistic Ministers Eucharistic Adoration Ministers of Care Ministry of Prayer Ushers Sacristans Music Ministry Greeters Contact: Mandy May | mmay@newmanparish.com Sacristans prepare the altar for the sacred ritual of the Mass. They attend to the many details of preparation including altar linens, wine and hosts and a myriad of other tasks to provide for a prayerful setting when the Mass is spoken. Weddings, funerals, and baptisms are also settings where sacristans provide their services for the Mass in the ceremony conducted. St. John Newman has a permanent sacristan that is aided by parishioners trained to fulfill the duties of the sacristan. Sacristans also help with the Wednesday school Mass, order needed items, assist the visiting priests regarding their scheduled times and what is needed for any given masses, and on the first Wednesday of each month go to Three Crowns to aid with the Mass at that location.

SPIRITUAL LIFE MINISTRIES Christian Family Movement Arts & Environment Altar Serving MINISTRIES HOME Contemplative Prayer Lectors Eucharistic Ministers Eucharistic Adoration Ministers of Care Ministry of Prayer Ushers Sacristans Music Ministry Greeters Right to Life As you reflect upon the gifts with which God has blessed you, please prayerfully if the Holy Spirit is nudging you to serve the parish at Mass. A host of opportunities are waiting for you here at St. John Newman Parish. For the liturgy to be celebrated well, and so that the People of God may be led to full, conscious, and active participation, many liturgical ministers are needed. Together with the priest, the ministers such as lectors, choir, extraordinary ministers of holy Communion, servers, and ushers, assist the assembly of the faithful in praying as the one Body of Christ in the liturgy, which means “the work of the people.” All liturgical ministers exist for the service of the Body of Christ, the People of God, the assembly gathered in God’s name. Although serving in any of these ministries should be a source of joy and satisfaction for individual people, these ministries exist for the benefit and service of the Church and not for individual or personal piety, spiritual growth, or status. As such, these ministries are regulated by Church and Liturgical law. Therefore, the pastor has the final approval of all liturgical ministers before they can begin service at the Mass.
