Lector MinistryThe Lector Ministry at St Joseph Church is a liturgical ministry. We strive to improve our proclamation of the Word of God through feedback, liturgical training, self-evaluation and prayer. We welcome those who wish to train with us through a comprehensive program designed to work with many schedules. Lectoring schedules are completely volunteer based. Lectors for the upcoming Sunday masses are encouraged to participate in a preparation meeting with the Deacons at 7pm on Mondays at the parish office. Training for new lectors will be generally scheduled four times in a year, in the months of January, April, July and October. If you are interested in being a lector or interested in attending the next training, please contact the lector lead at lectors@saintjosephmsj.org Lector Resources:Scripture StudyOur Scripture Study team publishes Bible Study material every Monday for the upcoming Sunday readings. Daily Readings![]() USCCB is a great resource for anyone who is a lector or aspiring to be one. They have Daily Bible Readings, Podcast Audio and Videos by the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops. For our Youngest LectorsThe Kids’ Bulletin is a wonderful resource for Catholic kids to learn about the upcoming Sunday readings in an engaging way. Activities include a puzzle based on Bible readings and the life story of a saint whose feast day falls on that week. |
