The word Ministry comes from a La n word meaning service. Every Chris an should take this instruc on of Jesus seriously. Most Catholics serve others through leadership in their family, workplace and community, and by par cipa ng in a ministry in their parish. Are you following Jesus instruc on? In what way are you being called to serve? It does not ma er if you are new to our Parish, or you have been here for a long me, there is a ministry for you.
