Acolytes serve at the altar as sub deacons and servers, crucifers, thurifers, torchbearers and lectors. |
|
Let the presider and sacristan know that you are one of the lectors for that mass. |
|
Ideally, the readings at weddings and funerals are proclaimed by lectors of the parish who have been properly trained. |
|
Beyond reading the sacred scripture, lectors write the intercessions we pray in the name of the community each week. |
|
The lectors, the cantor, many of the servers and all those bringing up the gifts were female. |
|
The lectors minister the presence of God who speaks when the scriptures are proclaimed in church. |
|
Training is provided and lectors are asked to commit to serve once a month. |
|
Leading the Liturgy of the Word that forms the first part of every service of Holy Eucharist, lectors proclaim the Word of God from the Old and New Testaments. |
|
Not only bishops, priests, deacons and subdeacons but also of porters, lectors, exorcists, acolytes, canons, abbots, abbesses. |
