Lectors are lay men and women of our parish who are appointed by the pastor to proclaim the Word of God, as written in the Scriptures, at Mass…not just on Sundays and Holy Days, but at every weekday Mass as well. We believe that the Scriptures are the inspired Word of God, thus when the Old and New Testament passages are proclaimed within the Liturgy it is God Himself who is speaking to the faithful.
A lector should possess a love of the Scriptures, an understanding of the sacredness of the function to proclaim God’s truths, and the skills necessary to do so clearly and persuasively. Of course, this takes prayer and preparation prior to an assignment.
Weekend lectors, on average, are assigned to a Saturday Vigil Mass or one of the Sunday Masses on a monthly basis.
