EUCHARISTIC MINISTERS

SLUH trains and commissions a group of seniors to serve as Extraordinary Ministers of Holy Communion, for a variety of Masses at SLUH. Seniors interested in this opportunity should talk with Mrs. Julie Lewis (jlewis@sluh.org) in Campus Ministry. 

SERVERS

One of the many ways that SLUH students participate in Mass is through serving. If any student is interested in serving, whether or not you have serving experience, check with someone in Campus Ministry about the possibility to serve at daily, class, or all-school Masses. 

LECTORS

SLUH students take active roles lectoring at Masses. For class and all-school Masses, lectors are typically chosen from the grade-level pastoral teams. These pastoral teams are open to any interested student. If any student is interested in lectoring at the daily, morning Mass before school, let someone in Campus Ministry know and we can get you on the schedule!

LITURGICAL MUSICIANS

Students are involved in music for our liturgies. They may participate in the liturgical choir for class-level Masses, all-school prayer services, all-school Masses, and chapel prayer services. Interested students should talk with Mr. Brian Gilmore (bgilmore@sluh.org) in Campus Ministry.
