Worship Commission

The Worship Commission touches most every part of our Parish Family. Volunteers are more than welcome to participate in all aspects of the Liturgy. Contact Deacon Mike Lang at mlang28158@att.net or the main office at 586-777-7543 x100 if you would like to volunteer.  The requirement for all volunteers is that the person be in good standing with the church and will include some training.
