Lectors

"He said to them, 'Go into the whole world and proclaim the gospel to every creature.'"
– Mark 16:15

Who We Are

Lectors are men and women of St. Gertrude Church who serve the parish by proclaiming the Word of God during Mass. 

What We Do

Lectors not only proclaim the first and second readings—and sometimes the Responsorial Psalm—during Mass but also read any necessary announcements before the liturgy and the Universal Prayer (Prayer of the Faithful) before the Liturgy of the Eucharist.

When We Meet

Lectors do not meet together on a regular basis; however, all lectors go through an initial training before they are able to serve at Mass. ​​

Join Us

Anyone is always welcome to become a lector at St. Gertrude Church. If you are interested in joining this liturgical ministry, please contact Father Jordan Kelly at frjordan@stgertrude.org or (513) 561-5954, ext. 2113. A member of the Pastoral Team will acquaint you with the procedures at our parish, provide the necessary training, and show you how to use our ministry scheduling program.

​You can also check the bulletin or listen to the post-Mass announcements for dates of upcoming information sessions.
