Musicians
The Cathedral of St. Paul has a long tradition of musical excellence. We invite you to come and join us in our Liturgy, either as part of the music ministry of the assembly or as a choir member or cantor. Under the leadership of Music Director Richard Monroe, the Cathedral Choir meets on Sunday mornings at 9 am for rehearsal and sings at the Sunday Mass at 10:00am. Prior choral experience, while helpful, is not a requirement. Come and join us!
The choir also assists with various Pontifical Liturgies throughout the year, including ordinations, confirmations and other diocesan celebrations. For more information, please contact us at:
These lay people are sometimes referred to as Eucharistic Ministers. Extraordinary Ministers of Holy Communion serve by bringing communion to parishioners who reside in nursing homes, assisted living facilities, or in their own homes and unable to get to church. They also may assist the priest in distributing the Eucharist at Mass.

Ushers
These ministers are sometimes referred to as Greeters. Being a welcoming community is very important to us. Ushers are the first face of the parish. They greet those coming into our church, offer assistance to those in need, distribute parish bulletins, take up the collection, and distribute other materials as needed.
