Servers and Lectors
Liturgical ministry is an excellent opportunity to fulfill your baptismal call of service to one another. Our liturgies should utilize the talents and gifts that God has given this community to the fullest extent. Our servers assist the clergy as crucifers, torch bearers, thurifers, and acolytes.​
During the liturgy, the reader is fulfilling a mission to his or her fellow community members. It is a sacred duty that involves a sharing of one's own faith. This does not mean that a reading should be stiff or formal, but rather the realization that we are continuing Jesus's mission of sharing the Word with God's people. It is something special and requires adequate preparation.

Greeters
The Greeters Ministry welcomes parishioners and guests to St. Matthew's Cathedral. Whether it’s Sunday morning services or Ash Wednesday, the greeters are on hand before each service to answer questions and make sure everyone knows how glad we are to worship with them. It’s a small commitment with a big impact.​
