Reflection Twentieth Sunday of Ordinary Time
A God who longs to be in relationship with ALL peoples; A God who desires that “my house shall be called a house of
prayer for all peoples.” It doesn’t matter whether they are “locals” or “foreigners.” God’s justice and salvation are
generously promised and given to all who sincerely seek the Lord.
Let us be as bold to believe it and to act on it – seeking God’s mercy, love and healing.

“There are different gifts but the same Spirit, there are different ministries but the
same Lord . . . To each person the manifestation of the spirit is given for the
common good.” Every person is called to contribute to the liturgy in a manner suited to his or her unique talents. It takes the help of many people serving in a variety of differ-ent liturgical ministries to help the liturgy flow smoothly and enable the participation of the assem-bly. At the present time there is a serious need for volunteers in all ministries at St. Gerard’s. We invite you to prayerfully reflect on the gifts God has given you and consider volunteering your talents for one of our ministries.
Training: Training is provided to help you get started in all the listed ministries.
Scheduling: Liturgical ministers are scheduled at the Mass time of their preference as often as fits their schedule and are asked to arrive 30 minutes before their scheduled Mass begins.
Contact: Please see list of ministries, below. Call the leader of the ministry you are interested in to volunteer or for further information.
