Our mission is to bring a bit of God’s green creation inside the church, to remind ourselves and the parish of the beauty of His wonderful gifts. Surrounding our tabernacle and sanctuary with graceful plants/flowers adds visual splendor to our holiest place and spotlights our faith in the Real Presence. We work every Friday morning after the 9 o’clock mass and are usually finished by 10:30 AM.

We welcome both men and women with plant skills, since we regularly receive help from husbands and other male volunteers as needed.

The Ministry of Lector is a layperson’s special privilege of proclaiming the “Word of God” both Daily and during the Weekend Masses. During the Mass, the Lector normally proclaims the Word by reading from the Lectionary. The first reading is traditionally from the Old Testament or one of Saint Paul’s Epistles; the second reading is usually from the New Testament. Additionally, the Lector will generally read the Prayer of the Faithful or the Intercessions if a Deacon is not present.

The Usher’s Ministry at St. Timothy’s Church helps welcome and ensure the comfort and safety of parishioners at Holy Mass. We are often the first face incoming Mass attendees see when arriving at Church. While Ushers have a number of specific pre- and during-Mass duties, we attempt to enthusiastically and warmly greet and assist parishioners and strive to provide an excellent, safe, and comfortable setting for everyone prior to and during the celebration of Mass.
