Liturgy Group

Parish Liturgy Groups

Membership

The Parish Liturgy Group works closely with the priest to prepare the Sunday liturgy as well as the different high points of our liturgical year – Advent, Christmas, Lent and Easter. It can also help organise different ministry groups involved in parish liturgies, e.g. Ministers of the Word, Ministers of the Eucharist, altar servers.

While we celebrate the same feasts, year after year, in Church, it is important to remember that the community who celebrates these feasts is different.

The birth of Jesus might strike someone anew because they have had a new baby, or because they have lost a child.

Jesus’ passion, death and resurrection take on a different significance when we have been bereaved.

The work of the liturgy group is to allow the mysteries of each season be experienced, anew and afresh. Working as a group takes time and patience, and it is important to discover what talent or gift each one brings to the group.
