Mass on the Grass and Liturgical Ministry Fair, October 9, 10am-1pm

Join us at 10:00 a.m. Mass on Sunday, October 9. Weather permitting, it won’t be in church but outside! This special event is meant to send out a message to all of us at St. Peter: it’s time to breathe fresh air into our parish! The period of the pandemic, with its lock-down and restraints, had effects on participation in the life of the Church. Some parishioners stepped away from involvement with ministries, and others got in the habit of not being physically with us at church. It’s time to hit the reset button and start afresh.

What should you know about this October 9 event?

The worship area will be set up in the grassy space near Clay/Argonne with seating fanned out onto the parking lot.  A shaded area will be reserved for those who require it.

It will be a Mass like other Sundays with music provided by our choir.  Children’s Liturgy of the Word, however, will not be offered on this day.

We want parishioners to get involved in our liturgical ministries!  So, after Mass, from 11:00 am -1:00 pm, you can visit tables to learn more about how you can become an extraordinary minister of Holy Communion, a reader, an usher, a catechist for children, or a helper with church flowers and decorations.  We have lots of roles to fill, and now’s your opportunity to sign up!

Four food trucks offering a variety of fare will be on hand for you to patronize.  Stick around after Mass and socialize with fellow parishioners.
