Altar Servers
Usually anyone in 4th grade or older who would like to assist at Mass. We would like to have three per Mass, so nine each weekend. During the summer one or two would be welcome at daily Masses as well. It would involve carrying the cross in procession, bringing things to the altar, holding the book for the priest, assisting in other ways.

Lectors
Those who proclaim the Word of God at Mass. Two at each weekend Mass is preferred. We would provide books to help them prepare the readings ahead of time, so they have a richer understanding of the reading and able to proclaim the Word with meaning, not just read it.
Clear selection
Choir Members
We cannot quite have choir yet, but perhaps we can start practice soon. We will also have a full-time director of liturgy and music soon who will be able to work with choirs and cantors.

Eucharistic Ministers
It would be good to have four people doing this again. It may be some time before we have Communion under both forms, but as the number of people at Mass continues to rise, it would be helpful to have four distributing, including the priest and deacon.
Clear selection
Homebound Eucharistic Ministers
We have over 30 people who receive Communion at home on Sunday mornings. Over 20 of them are in two stops, but there may be more home visits added when we move all the Masses inside.
Clear selection
Greeters
As we welcome people back to worshiping together, we want it to be a very welcoming experience by literally opening the door for them and greeting them as they approach the church. They can be alerted to any special event at Mass that day as well.
Clear selection
Sacristans
They help set up for Mass, and check to see whether all the other ministers have arrived and checked in, Daily Masses are covered now, but we need more for weekends, so they are not on every week.
Clear selection
Ushers
Assisting people in getting to seats in the church, taking up collections, responding to emergencies, directing people to restrooms and nursery areas, etc.
Clear selection
Livestream Operators
We anticipate we will continue to live-stream at least one Mass a weekend, some funerals or weddings or other special events such as First Communion could also be done. It is not extremely difficult but sometimes requires some troubleshooting. Training would be provided along with a few weeks of assistance.
Clear selection
Church Cleaners
 A group of people who do some additional vacuuming and dusting, plant watering, etc. for an hour or so late in the week.
