Hospitality Ministry: Greeters and Collectors (HMs)
We extend the welcome of Christ to you at the doors as you cross over from the outside world into the House of God. HMs assist during the Mass to maintain a reverential experience so that everyone can encounter Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament. At Masses, HMs also assist in the collection. There are about 75 Hospitality Ministers at present.
We see God in the people we serve from the very young to the very old. For people in wheelchairs, we guide the extra- ordinary communion ministers to them. We do get negative responses from some parishioners at times but we are able to carry on as we see God challenging us to pray for them in difficult situations (like parents of crying children when they refuse to co- operate).Thus we practice compassion in serving the Lord and finding Him in others.
We are looking to recruit more members committed to performing duties for large Masses. We are inviting more young members to inject some renewal into the Ministry as we bond with, and support each other in this Ministry.
