Ushers

Being a welcoming community is very important to us.  Ushers warmly greet those coming into our church, offer assistance to those in need, distribute parish bulletins, take up the collection, assist with the flow of communion, and distribute other materials as needed. Open to any adult or youth, ages 14 and up.
 

• Parishioners need to be seated by you. 

• They need to be seated 4 ft apart per family unit, and as best possible based on the image below.
  

• After the church is filled you will go to the overflow location(s) to help parishioners find appropriate seating.

• After all parishioners arrive mass proceeds as normal

• If the Sacristan needs help getting a headcount, please do so, especially with overflow attendance.

• Communion has returned to a procession during mass, please help send up pews in a manner so as to help families ensure 6 ft distancing as they exit (tape on the ground marks 6 ft). 
  

• After mass, you will help pass out bulletins, clean up pews by putting away hymnals, and put away the collection as usual.

St. Thomas Aquinas Catholic Church offers our members the opportunity to share their gifts in hospitality by serving as Ushers during our many weekly Masses. To find out more about how to become involved in this important ministry, please contact the Liturgy Director. Thank you!
