Adoration Chapel
Our Adoration Chapel is located just inside the main doors of the Parish Center. Members of our parish and surrounding communities take part in adoration of the Blessed Sacrament by maintaining a continuous prayer vigil in the Perpetual Adoration Chapel. The chapel is open to all people of faith for quiet prayerful reflection and adoration of the Eucharist throughout the day. People are needed to commit to specific one-hour periods, from 6 pm on Sunday through midnight on Friday. Substitutes are also needed.
Contact Shift Coordinators:
Hours of 6 pm to midnight: Joy Tokarsky, 419-681-7570
Hours of midnight to 6 am - Ann Schumm, 419-668-8994

Altar Servers – Adult and Youth
​Youth in grades 5-12 and/or adult servers assist the priest during Mass, including the processions before and after Mass, helping with offertory gifts, and other tasks that aid the celebrant and enhance the liturgy. Adult servers are needed for funeral Masses and other celebrations when youth servers are unavailable. Servers complete a training session with a team including the parish Associate Pastor. ​

Church Environment Team
The Church Environment Team plans the seasonal decorations of the church in such a way that the environment reinforces, communicates, and celebrates the liturgical season. A planning committee meets prior to Advent, Christmas, Lent, Easter, and Ordinary Time. Additional volunteers are needed to decorate  for the liturgical seasons and water the indoor and outdoor plants.
Contact: Betty Smith, 419-706-4599

Eucharistic Ministers
(Liturgy and Worship)
Eucharistic Ministers assist in distributing the Body and Blood of Christ during celebration of the Mass.  These ministers should arrive 15 minutes before Mass.  After Mass, they purify and clean the sacred vessels and assist the Mass Coordinator to put them away.  Eucharistic Ministers are asked to serve a 2-year renewable commitment and, after initial training, participate in ongoing formation every two years throughout their ministry.  Three-month schedules are sent out from the parish office via email and are also available on this website.

Lectors
Our lectors have the privilege of proclaiming the Word of God at Mass in such a way that it comes to life in the hearts of the assembly.

Liturgy Committee
The ministerial role of the Liturgy Committee is three-fold: planning/preparation, evaluation, and education. The committee provides initial and on-going training for all liturgical ministers and also provides liturgical catechesis for all parishioners. This group collaborates on seasonal planning for Sunday worship throughout the liturgical year and plans various sacramental celebrations and other prayer experiences. Committee members continue to educate themselves through reading and attending various seminars and workshops.

Liturgy of the Word with Children (LWC)
(Liturgy and Worship)

LWC offers children, ages 4 through about 12, the opportunity to hear the Mass readings in language they can understand and ​to participate in an activity that helps them relate the stories to their lives.  LWC is offered the 2nd and 4th Sundays of the month, during the 9:00 Mass on the 2nd Sunday and the 11:00 Mass on the 4th Sunday. Parents are encouraged to attend with their children, especially if they are timid at first.  Volunteers share the readings and lead the children in a related activity. Leaders are given a simple program to follow.

Mass Coordinators
Mass Coordinators assist the priests by preparing the church and sacristy for daily and weekend Masses. They ensure that the gifts are ready, lights and microphones are on, and other necessary tasks are completed, so that the priest celebrating the Mass has more time to focus on his personal preparations.
Contact: Anna Weisenberger, 419-668-8974

Music Ministry
Music Ministry opportunities are listed on the Music Ministries page.

Ushers
Ushers help create an atmosphere of hospitality through their words and actions, welcoming parishioners and visitors as they gather for worship, and helping guests locate seats and other areas of our church.  They assist with the Offertory, the Communion procession, and distribute bulletins and other materials. This ministry is open to all.
