Each month a Mass schedule for servers will be prepared to match each family's schedule. Altar serving is a wonderful way to participate in the Mass and to fulfill volunteer or service hours!

Selling Honduras Coffee after Mass at Our Lady's
Would you consider being part of a team that sells Honduran coffee once a month after Mass? It involves a commitment of about 20 minutes after one of the Masses at Our Lady’s. You can sell as an individual, but it’s also a great way to do service as a family, selling together and introducing your children to a wonderful project that supports the families of the coffee grow growers. If you're interested and would like to know more, email Barbara Allaire. We'd love to have you join us!
