Why do Catholics Parishioners act as Offertory Gift Bearers?
 
The community offers bread and wine in the memorial sacrifice of the Mass.  Bread and wine are presented as gifts to God, as symbols of the work of human hands.  This allows members of the church who are not able to participate in other forms of liturgical ministries a chance to play a role in the liturgy.  When volunteers include a family with children, it’s a special sight; one that reminds us that parishioners of all ages, are important members of the body of Christ.
 
If your family is interested in participating in the Mass as gift bearers, please select a date and Mass time and sign up.  The sign-up book is in the bell tower near the image of Pope Francis.
