Worship

We are called from within the faith community of St. Isidore Parish to develop and encourage the liturgical life of the parish community, making real the vision of the Second Vatican Council by implementing the Constitution on the Sacred Liturgy.

Minister to children during Sunday liturgy at 10:00 and 11:30 am, to offer them a separate experience geared especially to their level (ages 5 and up). Use your gifts to be a leader, reader, shepherd (chaperone), musician, or with art and environment set-up.

Hospitable people with the gift of welcoming can serve as greeters to our parishioners as they enter church for worship each weekend. People who are good at politely assisting and guiding large crowds of worshippers safely to enhance the feeling of welcome at our liturgies can serve as ushers.
