Welcomers and Stewards

Welcomers and stewards greet people as they arrive at weekend Masses and some of the busier services in the Liturgical Year.  They hand out books, newsletters and show people to seats if needed.  The welcomers can answer questions and are on standby to help with any problems that may arise.  They may also help take up the offertory collection.   We have teams of welcomers on a 2 or 3 weekly rota for each Mass.  We are always delighted to add to our teams.   To be a welcomer, you just need a friendly smile and to be able to arrive 15 minutes early for Mass!
