Worship Ministries
Eucharistic Adoration Ministry: This ministry is designed to
perpetuate the adoration of Jesus, present in the Holy Eucharist, which
is held in reserve in our chapel. The goal is to have at least one person
in adoration every hour of every day. Volunteers reserve one hour per
week, which will be their special time to spend in prayer with Jesus.
This practice of perpetual adoration is capable of producing tremendous
benefits for us, for our parish and for the whole world. To participate in
adoration, please email worship@esacredheart.org

Altar Servers: The Altar Server ministry offers children and adults an
opportunity to be directly involved with the celebration of the liturgy.
Altar servers assist the presider during mass, serve the parish family
by assisting in the celebration of the liturgy and serve God through
worship and prayer. We encourage parents and children to serve
together. This is a wonderful way to honor God as a family. Any man,
woman or child 9 or older may be an altar server. Required training is
provided. Anyone interested in becoming an Altar Server may email

Eucharistic Ministers: "I am the living bread that came down from
heaven; whoever eats this bread will live forever; and the bread that I
will give is my flesh for the life of the world." (John 6:15) To
administer the Eucharist to the people of God is one of the greatest
capacities in which we can serve. Faithful members of our parish are
always needed for this very important ministry. Volunteers are also
needed to administer the Eucharist in nursing homes and to our
homebound parishioners. For more information email
worship@esacredheart.org
Lectors: An integral part of the sacrifice of the Mass is the Liturgy of
the Word. As authorized since Vatican II, we have had an active group
of parishioners participating in this ministry. They proclaim the Word
of God, and lead the congregation in prayer. Members of the parish
are encouraged to serves as lectors. After receiving proper instruction,
they are scheduled at regular intervals to carry out this ministry. If you
would like to be a lector or need more information please email

Greeters: The objective of this ministry is to greet everyone as they
enter and leave the church, just as we would greet our friends and
family as they enter our homes. This is our parish family and we want
to welcome one and all. If you would like to become a part of this
ministry, no special training or talent is necessary. You only need to
be able to smile and say "Good morning or afternoon", or "Welcome
to Sacred Heart." Children or grandchildren are welcome to greet
with you. For more information email worship@esacredheart.org
Audio/Visual Ministry: Sacred Heart of the Hills has an
audio-visual studio in the balcony. Combining sound, video, and lighting
with a three camera still shot system, this great technology can really
enhance our worship. This ministry team needs operators, and creative
team members to help shape the worship experience of our parish
community. Qualifications? A desire to learn, pray and explore how
sight and sound can bring new life to our worship services and
programs. For more information, or to volunteer, please send an email

Sacred Heart. Vocal, choral, and instrumental music also enhances our
liturgies. All those with musical talents are encouraged to participate in
the various music ministries. For more information  please email

Ushers: The ushers' responsibilities include seating the congregation,
offertory collection, selecting a family for the offertory of the gifts,
making sure that the movement of the people during communion is
organized and orderly, and to provide for the comfort and convenience
of the worshipers. New ushers are always welcome. Participation is not
limited to individuals; we encourage families to join as a group.  If you
