Called to Serve

One of the greatest strengths of our Cathedral is the faithful men and women who generously give their time and talents to serve during our liturgical celebrations. Whether welcoming parishioners at the doors, assisting with Holy Communion, or serving at the altar during weekday Mass, these ministries help create a meaningful and prayerful experience for everyone who worships with us.

As our parish continues to grow, we are looking to welcome additional volunteers in several ministries.

Current Needs

Hospitality Ministers

Our Hospitality Ministers are often the first smiling face someone encounters at the Cathedral. They welcome parishioners and visitors, assist with seating and collections, and help create a warm and inviting atmosphere at every weekend Mass.

Extraordinary Ministers of Holy Communion

Those called to distribute Holy Communion receive Archdiocesan formation covering the theology of the Eucharist, liturgical ministry, and the practical aspects of serving. After completing the required formation, ministers receive additional Cathedral-specific training before serving.

Weekday Altar Servers

We are looking for one or two dependable individuals who are available to assist at weekday Masses. This ministry plays an important role in supporting our daily worship and is a wonderful opportunity to serve the Church in a meaningful way.

If you have ever considered becoming more involved in the life of the Cathedral, this may be the perfect opportunity. We would be honored to help you discern where your gifts can best serve our parish community.

"There are different kinds of service, but the same Lord."

The Cathedral Social Concerns Committee serves as the hub for the various outreach ministries that fall under the overarching title of Social Concerns. The committee generally meets three to four times each year to learn of the ongoing activity and to plan for future events. We also provide opportunities for the parish throughout the year for local and global outreach and life- affirming activities.

Cathedral Ministries represented on the committee are our Daily Lunch Program, State ID Voucher Program, and Sister Parish in Jérémie, Haiti (Cathédrale Saint-Louis).

We partner with other agencies and groups within our community including Catholic Charites and Central Louisville Community Ministries. We host the 5th Sunday Collections for House of Ruth.
