Altar Serving at Saint Anthony’s is a ministry for both the young men and women of our parish, as well as for those who are older.
The younger group ranges from third graders to high school seniors. The contact person for this group is Jeffrey Medeiros.
Adult Servers assist at daily mass and at funerals and, like their younger counterparts, range in age and experience. The parish staff contacts them for funerals and for daily mass. The contact person for this group is Bev Murphy.
CHOIR:
We have two choirs: an adult choir that sings at the 9:00 Mass each Sunday, and a children’s choir that sings at the 10:15 Mass each Sunday. Both are under the direction of Sue Pennington.
EUCHARISTIC MINISTERS:
The lay ministers of the Eucharist are divided into two groups. One group assists at daily mass and at our weekend liturgies, and the other are ministers of the Eucharist to the sick at Falmouth Hospital and to the homebound in their homes. Connie Kiss, our parish secretary, coordinates the ministry to the homebound, and Bev Murphy schedules the ministry for the parish.
LECTORS:
The ministry of Lectors is also an essential aspect of our prayer life. Readers proclaim the word at both our daily and weekend masses. Scheduling is done by Bev Murphy.
