When we gather to celebrate weekend Mass at St.Joseph Parish the 1st & 2nd Reading are proclaimed by the lectors. Since the Liturgy of the Word focuses on several scriptural reading, it is the lector who brings these to life for all to hear.

Another component of this ministry is that of the Commentator who welcomes the assembled community before Mass and leads the Prayers of the Faithful.

Lectors must be registered members of St.Joseph Parish who will be committed to this ministry. Training is provided by the coordinator as well as an annual diocesan workshop. Anyone interested in becoming a lector please contact the Parish Office @ 905-528-0019 or stjosephparish@cogeco.ca
