“The Lord has given me a well-trained tongue to speak to the weary a word that will rouse them.”
Isaiah 50:4
The LECTOR MINISTRY provides a profound and powerful avenue to enrich and deepen a parishioner’s faith experience. The Lector Ministry is a very important part of the celebration of Mass because lectors are proclaiming the Word of God in the liturgical assembly.
To be truly suited for this ministry, the individual must be a fully initiated Catholic (received Sacraments of Baptism, Confirmation, Eucharist) living in Communion with the Church and with the parish community and have a deep spiritual faith. Lectors are registered parishioners of Incarnation Catholic Church who attend Sunday Mass here. Lectors must have good communication and public reading skills to be able to express the dignity of the Scriptures, not only to themselves, but to those listening.
