Liturgy

- Ministries

Strongly imbedded in Vatican II, the Church of Notre Dame welcomes all parishioners, men and women from each community to participate in its liturgies. Together with the priest, parishioners become the first witness of the Word of God and of the Eucharistic celebration.

- Eucharistic Ministers
- Altar Servers
Lectors

Lectors serve a unique role in the liturgy. These individuals proclaim the first and second
readings and offer the prayers of general intercession.
We are the storytellers of the community and must have the special gift of public speaking: able to provide good diction and projection, and deliver all the nuances of each reading.
If you are interested in becoming a Lector, you can contact a representative of your community:

- French: Françoise Cestac (212 888 0003) or Léones Darlestin (646 925 5207)
- Spanish : Maria Santos (212-222-5332)
Eucharistic Ministers

Eucharistic Ministers, along with the priest, minister the Body and Blood of Christ to the assembly during the Communion Rite of the Liturgy. Our mission is to welcome, worship and witness. By ministering and partaking in the Eucharist, we become one with God and one another.
If you are interested in becoming a Eucharistic minister, you can contact the Rectory to become familiar with this liturgical service, or a representative of your community:

Altar Servers

Assistance at the altar by servers represents a long liturgical tradition. Altar servers are children, young adults or adults, baptized Catholic, who are mature enough to understand the Eucharistic celebration. Altar Servers enhance the celebration for the whole community by taking part in processions, and by ensuring that all items required for the celebration are available at the appropriate moment.
