Thank you for your interest in serving in the Liturgical Ministries of Saint Matthew Catholic Church. As you can see below, there are a variety of ways that you can minister to your fellow parishioners in the liturgical life of this parish. Usually, what will happen after you submit this form is that someone from the pastoral team will contact you to follow up with a conversation about your interests and previous experiences. From this, we can better determine how to put your time and talent in motion to enhance the liturgical life of Saint Matthew. 

We thank you right now for putting your name forward as someone willing to serve in one of these ministries. May God continue to bless you as you discern how to be of service.
