Volunteers

Every church runs on its volunteers. If you are already a volunteer- THANK YOU! If you are considering a role, then the following guide and links may be useful to you.

Roles:

Altar servers: Can start from First Holy communion- so let's get them young! No upper age limit.

Parish committees: Discuss issues affecting the parish and decide what to do about them.

Helping hands: Help people with tasks they have difficulty with.

Music group: plays for Sunday 10:30 Mass, approach the group if interested. If you could play the organ regularly, do please get in touch!

Readers: during Mass, contact the Parish office if interested.

Lay Ministers of Holy Communion: Take communion to the housebound, and help at Mass- you would normally be approached if it was felt you could fill this role.

Churches Together: Plans inter-church activities with other Christian churches in this area. See John Borda/Ken Snare.

Newmarket Town Pastors: Inter-church group set up to minister to vulnerable people during Newmarket's vibrant "night-time economy" (pubs, clubs, etc.).

Volunteer leaders:

If you are in one of these roles, then part of your job is to make yourself redundant! Please train up people so they can take over from you eventually.
