ALTAR SERVERS
The Ministry of Altar Servers includes children and young people interested in serving the Lord during weekend liturgies. Along with assisting the priests, Altar Servers participate fully in the mass; through prayer, singing, and their respect for the Word of God.
Candidates are required to have received the Sacrament of First Holy Communion before serving.
We give a warm welcome to all young people interested in joining this ministry. We encourage you to complete the registration form and send it to the parish office. After a training session, candidates will be included in upcoming liturgies. We appreciate the assistance of parents who also support this ministry.
If your son is interested in served, please call our Parish Office.
EUCHARIST MINISTRIES
The Eucharist Minister is responsible for bringing the Sacrament of the Body and Blood of Christ to the people of God during Mass. This is one of the duties of ordained ministers (priests and deacons) in their service as “Ordinary Ministers of Holy Communion”; however, committed lay men and women may help priests and deacons in this duty as designated “Extraordinary Ministers of Holy Communion”.
Extraordinary Ministers of Holy Communion should have received the sacraments of Baptism, Communion, and Confirmation, be at least 25 years old, and desire to live the message of the Gospel in their lives. If married, it must be by the Catholic Church, and they should participate faithfully in every Sunday Mass.
Interview approval by pastor and workshop is required
LECTORS/COMENTATOR
Proclaim the Holy Scripture at mass. 21 and up. Lectors are parishioners who have volunteered to serve during Sunday liturgies, holy days, and feast days. Approval by pastor and workshop is required.
SACRISTAN
Has the responsibility for setting up everything needed before Mass.
USHERS
Smile and warmly welcome and assist parishioners as they enter the parish; direct parishioners to open seating; pass the baskets for the collection; direct parishioners to communion; and distribute weekly bulletin.
If your son are interested in served, please call Parish Office.

EUCHARISTIC ADORATION
Our Parish is blessed with the real presence of our Lord Jesus Christ in the Blessed Sacrament, exposed 24 hours per day, 7 days a week, in our St Joseph Perpetual Adoration Chapel.
“Adoration is the first attitude of man acknowledging that he is a creature before his Creator. It exalts the greatness of the Lord who made us and the almighty power of the Savior who sets us free from evil. Adoration is homage of the spirit to the “King of Glory,” respectful silence in the presence of the “ever greater” God. Adoration of the thrice-holy and sovereign God of love blends with humility and gives assurance to our supplications” (CCC 2628)
“The time you spend with Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament is the best time that you will spend on earth. Each moment that you spend with Jesus will deepen your union with Him and make your soul everlastingly more glorious and beautiful in heaven, and will help bring about an everlasting peace on earth.” – St.Teresa of Calcutta
We ask that you give one hour a week in adoration to the Blessed Sacrament to visit with Jesus and to pray for your intentions, the intentions of the parish family, the intentions of our Holy Father, Pope Francis and for vocations to the priesthood and religious life.
If you feel the calling to adore Jesus Blessed Sacrament, we invite you to register calling Mrs Luisa Arguello to 305-542-0210
CURSILLO MOVEMENT
“The Cursillo Movement” is a movement of the Roman Catholic Church ministering worldwide and having the same apostolic purpose as the Church herself evangelization. The Cursillo, by means of its own method, makes it possible for Catholic people to live what is fundamental for being a Christian, and to live it in community. It helps people discover and fulfill their personal vocations and it promotes the creation of core groups of Christians in all walks of life. They, in turn, leaven their environments with the Gospel of Jesus Christ, fulfilling their baptismal responsibility. A “Cursillo de Cristiandad” does not simply “happen once”; it is “lived”, as “cursillistas” say.
Mettings every Tuesday 7:30 p.m. Parish Center room #3

EMMAUS (MEN AND WOMAN)
Lay, committed people, who hold a firm desire of serving the Lord, organize Emmaus retreats. Through their volunteer work during retreats, they announce the good news that Jesus Christ lives and walks amongst us.
Emmaus retreats are a place of refuge for people desiring to experience God alive in their lives. They are for men and women looking to renew and deepen their relationship with our Lord, and for those wanting to pause to evaluate their spiritual and personal growth.
Emmaus retreats are not silent retreats. Their platform is based on the scripture from the Gospel according to St. Luke, Chapter 24, verses 13-35, in which disciples of Jesus are headed to the town of Emmaus, near Jerusalem.
