Volunteers are always needed to count the St. Anne Parish the weekly offerings. The money is counted after the 10:30am Mass on Sundays. If you are interested in serving the church in this capacity, please call Father Albert or the Parish Office.  (Counters must be at least 18 years of age.)

During the Mass itself, you see many people on the altar and working around the church. Because we can see what they do and think "I can do that!" it is a good introduction to becoming more involved in the parish.  

• Lector:  Lectors read announcements before mass, share the first and second reading, and read the mass intentions.

• Altar Server:  Altar Servers are an integral part of our church.  These older children bring dignity to the mass as they assist the priest and deacon by carrying the cross, assisting during the Eucharistic preparations, and holding the book for the priest.  Altar Servers are children who have already received communion, but typically have not yet been confirmed. If your child is interested in joining the team, please contact Fran Schiebe, Altar Server Coordinator, at [email protected].

• Communion Minister:  The Communion Ministers step forward during the Eucharistic Celebration and then offer the Body and Blood of Christ during Communion.  They also are able to bring the Eucharist to the homebound.  
  • Minister of Holy Communion (Eucharistic Minister) - assisting the celebrant of the Mass in the distribution of the Holy Eucharist at Lord's Day and Holy Day Masses. Training will be provided for those interested.  Ministers of Communion serve only within St. Anne's Parish Community and are authorized by the Bishop of the Diocese.  This ministry entails a monthly to bi-monthly commitment as available.​
  • Ministry to the Homebound - generally performed by authorized Ministers of Communion, lay people bring the Holy Eucharist and the joy of the Gospel to the homebound sick or elderly either weekly or monthly depending upon your availability and their need.  This would include hospitals and nursing homes as requested. Extraordinary Ministers are always pleased to bring the Eucharist to parishioners who are unable to join us for weekly worship.  Please call the Parish Office for more information or to schedule an Extraordinary Minister.

• Usher:  Ushers typically assist the participants in procuring seating, take up the offertory collection, organize the Offertory Procession to the altar, and distribute bulletins at the exits at the end of Mass.

• Collection Counter:  Adult volunteers gather after the 10:30 a.m. Mass on Sundays to count the money donated during the weekend Masses.
