About this ministry: The job of the Proclaimer is to proclaim the word of God to the congregation at weekend and daily Masses in order to provide a better understanding of Sacred Scripture to those in attendance. It is hoped that in the process of preparing, the proclaimers will gain a better understanding of the Biblical text as well.
What training is necessary? There is a 1- to 2-hour training in which the first time proclaimer is given an explanation of when to come up, how to stand, what to do with the book, etc. There is continual training annually as well as a yearly liturgical minister's day of renewal.
To whom is this ministry open? Anyone old enough to read may participate. All ages are welcome!
What expertise is needed? Familiarity with the sacred Scriptures is very helpful.
What kind of a commitment is required? Proclaimers receive a 3-4 month schedule. They usually proclaim at a weekend Mass about once every 4-6 weeks. Daily Mass is more often.
