"In the earthly liturgy we share in a foretaste of that heavenly liturgy which is celebrated in the Holy City of Jerusalem toward which we journey as pilgrims, where Christ is sitting at the right hand of God, Minister of the sanctuary and of the true tabernacle. With all the warriors of the heavenly army we sing a hymn of glory to the Lord; venerating the memory of the saints, we hope for some part and fellowship with them; we eagerly await the Savior, our Lord Jesus Christ, until he, our life, shall appear and we too will appear with him in glory." (CCC 1090)
St. Anthony Parish eagerly strives to celebrate Mass with as much devotion and sacredness as possible. We greatly please our Lord when we worship him with our whole hearts, minds, souls and strength. An important element of celebrating Mass in this way is the participation of various invididuals who serve as Extraordinary Ministers of Communion, Lectors, or sing in the choir.
