News - Extraordinary Ministers RSS Feed

St. Catherine is in need of liturgical ministers! We are looking for Extraordinary Ministers of Holy Communion, Ushers and Lectors. We are looking for liturgical ministers to serve at all Mass times but especially the 11:30 a.m., 1:15 p.m., and 5:00 p.m. Sunday Masses. If you are interested in serving in one or more of these ministries, please contact Katheryn Daniel, Liturgy Coordinator, at katheryn.daniel@stcatherine-austin.org or (512) 892-2420, ext. 335.
