Hospitality Ministers

This ministry welcomes women, men, and families to serve as hospitality ministers.  The main responsibilities for those in this ministry include greeting and welcoming people as they arrive for liturgies, collection of the material gifts, straightening of the pews after the liturgies, assisting with the communion procession, and the seating of people as they arrive for the liturgy.  There is one initial training session and one enrichment session typically offered each year.  Scheduling is done once every three to four months.  Volunteers may indicate their Mass time preference.
For more information on this ministry, please contact the Church of St. Mary at 320-235-0118 or the Volunteer Coordinator for this ministry.
 
Hospitality Minister Guidelines
 
Hospitality Ministers are also needed to assist at funeral liturgies.  This ministry is open to men and women who are free during the day.  Volunteers are asked to assist with welcoming all who come, handing out programs, cleaning up after the liturgy, and with other tasks as directed by the funeral home directors or parish staff.
