| Sunday Mass is at the very heart of the life of a parish. While the priest
presides at the celebration there is also as was encouraged at the Second
Vatican Council, the ‘full, conscious and active participation’ of the
whole congregation. Many parishioners help out in special ways. Our Lady
of the Rosary has thirty Special Ministers of Holy Communion, twenty-one
Scripture readers and thirty-four young altar servers. A team of cantors
help particularly at 10.30 Mass on Sunday and with the Holy Week ceremonies.
Parents of young children help with the Children’s Liturgy at the 10.30
a.m. Mass. Other parishioners arrange the flowers, clean the Church, wash
the altar linen, clean the sacred vessels and help with collections and
in the repository. Mass is celebrated every day, the Rosary is recited after weekday masses and confessions are heard on Saturdays. The Special Ministers of Holy Communion bring Holy Communion to parishioners who are housebound or in nursing homes; in addition there is an annual Service for the Sick at the church in late September. |
