Hospitality Ministries

Our parish strongly believes that the church is our spiritual home.

St. Theresa's Hospitality Ministries help create this atmosphere of home - welcoming both current and new parishioners, organizing social events, and journeying with those experiencing loss and bereavement.

As our churches begin transitioning into a post-pandemic period, demand for Hospitality Ministry volunteers has never been greater. Join the Hospitality Ministry today and help make St. Theresa's Parish a true spiritual home for you and for our community.

Ministers of Hospitality (i.e. Ushers)

Ministers of Hospitality (or Ushers) welcome all parishioners and visitors into the church and assist with seating.  They also take up the collections, distribute bulletins, answer questions, and tidy up the church after each mass.  They respond to any needs parishioners may have during Mass. 

During the COVID-19 pandemic, their role has expanded to include implementation of our WorshipSafe guidelines in the parish. Their work has allowed the parish to reopen and remain open.

Demand for Ministers of Hospitality has never been greater than today. Please contact the Parish Office to join this Ministry today.

Parish Cleaning Team

Parish Cleaning Team Members contribute to the health and safety of the parish community by providing additional cleaning support to the parish in extraordinary circumstances and for large-scale events. This ministry will assist in the sanitization of the church between Mass celebrations, and after the church has been used for other events.

Just like the Ministers of Hospitality, their work has allowed the parish to remain a safe and healthy environment for our community. Please contact the Parish Office to join this Ministry today.

Parish Women's Group

The group is a ministry for women working together to promote Church functions, support community involvement in a social atmosphere and provide financial assistance to the Parish. Their main fundraiser is St. Theresa's annual Christmas Bazaar in November, a major event that has become part and parcel of our parish life every year.
