The Altar and Church Environment Care Ministry is made up of parishioners who care for parts of the nave and sanctuary. The altar cloths, corporals, purificators, and lavabo towels are prepared, cared for, cleaned, and pressed weekly. The flowers are changed and the vases are cleaned and changed out as needed. All sacred vessels are kept clean as are the crystal pitchers and plates. The pews are inspected for any trash or old bulletins to be cleaned up. Also, Fr.'s albs, stoles, and chasubles are cleaned and pressed as needed.
The Altar Care Ministry is also in charge of decorating the church for holidays and for readying the church for special Holydays such as preparing the candles for the Easter Vigil Mass, and the palms for Palm Sunday.
If you would like to be a part of this ministry, please call the rectory at 845-252-6681 or speak with Regina Moran.
