The Lector proclaims the Word of God at Mass. An understanding of and love of Scripture, as well as the willingness to proclaim that Word to those gathered, is essential to being an effective lector. If you are comfortable speaking in front of others, able to speak in a bold clear voice, you can be a lector.
You will be scheduled at a Mass time of your preference and occasionally asked to volunteer to Lector at special times of the year such at Holy Week and Christmas.
Lectors are asked to study, reflect on, and pray with the Scriptures they are to proclaim. Books and training will be provided.
