Lectors

Ministry

The proclamation of the Word of God during Mass is a ministry to the Church therefore needs to be treated seriously and with dignity. The main responsibility of the Lector is to proclaim the Good News of the Scripture to the assembly.  To do this effectively, the Lector must have a strong personal faith and be able to reveal that faith through the simple, natural delivery of the Word.
