Help someone feel at home
Walking into an unfamiliar church can feel intimidating.
A smile, a welcome and someone willing to answer a simple question can make all the difference.
Hospitality Ministers help people feel that they belong at Holy Rosary.
What we do
Hospitality Ministers:
- welcome people as they arrive;
- help visitors find seating;
- assist when someone needs help;
- take up the collection;
- help organize the procession of the gifts.
Sometimes hospitality is simply noticing a parent looking for space, an elderly parishioner needing assistance or a visitor unsure where to go.
Who can take part
If you enjoy meeting people and helping others, this may be a good ministry for you.
New parishioners as well as long-time parishioners are welcome to enquire.
What to ask
Before joining, ask about:
- preparation;
- how early ministers arrive;
- how often you would serve;
- which Mass would work best for you.
