Lectors

Lectors

When the Scriptures are read in the Church, God Himself is speaking to His people, and Christ, present in His own word, is proclaiming the gospel. The readings of God’s word which make up a principal element of the liturgy must therefore be read by lectors and listened to by all with reverence. For more information on becoming a Lector, please contact the parish office.

Norms for Readers
In October 2018, Bishop Frank J. Caggiano announced the norms, or rules, governing liturgical and sacramental practices in the Diocese of Bridgeport, were revised over the next four years. “When we concluded the diocesan synod, one of the major initiatives which I confirmed was the need to revise the diocesan sacramental guidelines,” said Bishop Caggiano. “The sacramental guidelines are really the depository of all the norms and guidelines that allow us to pray effectively and reverently as a Church.”
