Active participation in the Sacred Liturgy is our engagement in the mysteries we celebrate, lifting our minds and hearts to the Lord and engaging attentively in the prayers of the Mass. Along with active participation there are many ways to assist in our Liturgies, as an usher, an altar server, a greeter, a sacristan, an extraordinary minister of Holy Communion, among others. During the pandemic we do not have our full presence of ministers at Masses, but as we continue to reopen we hope to begin these ministries again soon. If you would like to be involved with one of these ministries, please contact Father Saiki at the parish office.
In the Sacred Music ministry at the Cathedral, our purpose is to lead and assist the assembly in musical praise of God. Our foundation comes from the Church's vast tradition of sacred music which enriches the liturgy and enlivens the spirit.
Cantors: Lead the congregation in sung prayer.
Choir: Support the congregation and provide choral music for the liturgy.
Organists: Lead the congregation in hymnody, support the cantor, and provide instrumental music.
If you are interested is assisting with our music ministry, please contact Adriana Hawkins at (816)738-2729 or ahawkins@cathedralkck.org.
