TRAINING FOR NEW LECTORS

SATURDAY, JANuary 10, 2026

A Lector is one called as the human instrument through which God becomes present when the Word of God is proclaimed to the worshiping community at Mass. If you have a desire to share this role at Nativity, please join us for a 2-hour training in January. We will cover both the rich spirituality and the logistics of this ministry at Nativity. All participants will practice at the ambo.
