MINISTRY

9/24/2023

 
The Our Lady Queen of Heaven men's group has been around for a long time and we are always looking for new members.  We are a loosely organized group whereas we do not meet on any specific night, or time.  We maintain a list of men from the parish that are willing to give of their time and talents, to take on some of the tasks that need attending to in the life of Our Lady, Saint Mary's.  Whether that be cutting the grass, to repairing the playground equipment, to constructing a new confessional, a new front sign, to pouring concrete, to helping clear snow in the winter, there are numerous projects that they undertake.  If you would like to participate, as you can, please make contact with Deacon Tom.

Another beautiful ministry is serving at Mass.  At this time we have several adult servers, and a few middle and high school students serving.  We are looking for those who could participate in this ministry.  You will be trained and then scheduled to participate at the altar.  

Calvary Cemetery - There is always work that needs to be done at Calvary Cemetery.  At this moment we are working on clearing the land where the two houses once stood.  There are a lot of trees down, a lot of branches, and such that need to be removed.  We are also in the process of putting in a flag pole, some trees, and a statue in front of the mausoleum.  If you have some time, and a trailer, or just want to help, again just make contact with Deacon Tom

Annual Parish Picnic - Again many hands make the work so much easier.  We thank all for such a successful parish picnic.  We are always looking for those who would be able and willing to help with this annual affair.  We begin planning for next years picnic right after this years picnic.  Are you willing to help us out?  

These are some of the ministries of Our Lady Queen of Heaven.  If you can help us please just make contact with me.
Thank you and God Bless you!
