Lectors' Schedule for November 2015

Besides sending out the November schedule, I would like to post again Fr John's instructions to all lectors. Sorry the November schedule is coming out a little late. We usually like to have lectors received the schedule by the middle of the month before, so lectors who cannot make it will havw time to seek a replacement through the group email.

Download the November Schedule!

As Markus has said many times, good reading depends on :
  • understanding the passage, and this is by reading it first at home
  • practicing, and this is by reading out loud and listening to yourself at least twice before coming to Mass.
Happy reading!

Vivian


FR JOHN'S REQUEST TO ALL LECTORS and REPLACEMENT LECTORS:

1. Please arrive 15 minutes before Mass and ANNOUNCE yourself to Fr John.

a)  This is in order to prep lectors in order to make announcements -  e.g. a special collection that day or a reminder that it is Service Sunday, or Mission Sunday that day - in the opening greetings BEFORE Mass begins.

b)   It is also to prevent Fr John from furiously looking for a replacement thinking the original lector had not shown up. (This has happened in the past.)


2. Please incorporate a message of WELCOME to anyone who is new to the parish or those who are visiting, in the opening greetings.

"We welcome anyone who is new to the parish or those who are visiting."


3. FYI from the month of December, there will be TWO readers assigned to the 6 PM Saturday Mass instead of one currently.
