Reflection Twenty-First Sunday of Ordinary Time

Jesus established a concrete community of followers who were to understand themselves as heirs to the covenant

life of Israel, working out our collective salvation in the context of divinely established earthly

authority. Believing that the authority of God works through human frailty.

“Thy kingdom come, thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven!”

“There are different gifts but the same Spirit, there are different ministries but the

same Lord . . . To each person the manifestation of the spirit is given for the

common good.” Every person is called to contribute to the liturgy in a manner suited to his or her unique talents. It takes the help of many people serving in a variety of differ-ent liturgical ministries to help the liturgy flow smoothly and enable the participation of the assem-bly. At the present time there is a serious need for volunteers in all ministries at St. Gerard’s. We invite you to prayerfully reflect on the gifts God has given you and consider volunteering your talents for one of our ministries.

Training: Training is provided to help you get started in all the listed ministries.

Scheduling: Liturgical ministers are scheduled at the Mass time of their preference as often as fits their schedule and are asked to arrive 30 minutes be-fore their scheduled Mass begins.

Contact: Please see list of ministries, below. Call the leader of the ministry you are interested in to vol-unteer or for further information.

VOLUNTEERS NEEDED FOR

MINISTRIES AT ST. GERARD’S
