Proclaiming God's Word with Faith and Reverence
Who We Are
Established in 1983, the Lectors' Society is a liturgical ministry dedicated to proclaiming the Word of God during the celebration of the Holy Mass. Through prayer, formation, and service, lectors strive to proclaim the Scriptures with clarity, reverence, and conviction, helping the faithful encounter Christ through His living Word.
Our Mission
To serve God and His Church by proclaiming His Word at Holy Mass, contemplating Sacred Scripture, and living out the Gospel in our daily lives.
What We Do
Lectors proclaim the First and Second Readings during Mass and serve an essential role in the Church's liturgy. Beyond reading aloud, members prepare spiritually and technically by:
- Prayerfully reflecting on the Scripture readings before proclaiming them.
- Growing in their understanding and love of God's Word.
- Developing clear and confident proclamation through ongoing formation and practice.
- Serving faithfully at assigned liturgical celebrations.
Through this ministry, lectors seek to proclaim God's Word in a way that inspires the congregation to listen, reflect, and respond in faith.
Who Can Join
We welcome practising Catholics who have a love for Sacred Scripture and a desire to proclaim God's Word at Mass. Members should be committed to spiritual growth, ongoing formation, and faithful service within the parish.
Young parishioners aged 15 to 20 are also welcome to join the Youth Lectors, where they can deepen their faith and develop their proclamation skills under the guidance of experienced mentors.
When Do We Meet
The Lectors' Society gathers on the fourth Thursday of each month (except December) for prayer, Scripture reflection, faith sharing, formation, and ministry updates. Meetings conclude with fellowship over refreshments.
The Youth Lectors meet once a month on a Sunday for formation, mentoring, and spiritual growth.
