Liturgical Ministries
Article 14 of the document Constitution on the Sacred Liturgy states that the faithful be led to take that full, conscious, and active part in liturgical celebrations which is demanded by the very nature of the liturgy. Becoming an active member of a liturgical ministry is one way to enter fully into the communal prayer of the Church. At St. Peter we invite people to enter deeply into the spiritual riches of being a lector, a eucharistic minister, a minister of hospitality. In addition, St Peter has an active Liturgy Committee that meets the fourth Tuesday of each month. Any one of these areas of parish life will deepen your connection to the community and to the prayer of the Church. Contact Kathryn Lien, director of liturgy and music, to learn more.
Ritual Environment
Ritual environment is that part of liturgy that brings the artist out in all of us. It is color and design, texture and movement, symbol and sign. Ritual environment tells you it’s Advent because you see the purple and rose; it invites you into the space with beauty and grace. Our ritual Environment committee meets several times throughout the year to plan the liturgical seasons. During the high feasts of Easter and Christmas the committee can use lots of help. Whether you are a designer or a worker, you will be welcome. Contact Kathryn Lien to learn more.
The Translation of the Roman Missal
On the First Sunday of Advent 2012 the new translation of the Roman Missal will be implemented throughout the English-speaking world. We at St Peter will have updates on the prayers, the responses, and the new settings of the mass. There are many places for you to find information regarding the new translation. Perhaps the best source is the website of the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops (www.usccb.org/romanmissal ). Here you will find the answers to the most frequently asked questions regarding the translation. Check this page often–we will be updating information and letting you know what educational opportunities are available.
