Ministry of Sacristans

The Sacristan Ministry is a “behind-the-scenes” service which can be performed by individuals who wish to perform a needed service, but do not wish to be visible to the congregation. The entire service of this ministry occurs before and after the Mass Liturgy. The sacristan is tasked to set up the sacred vessels before Mass. After Mass, the sacristan takes the vessels to the sacristy and sets them on the counter. The Priest or Deacon purifies the sacred vessels (ciboria, chalice), which contain the body and blood of our Lord, Jesus Christ.
