Serving as a Eucharist Minister allows me to be an active participant in sharing this most precious gift with others. I strongly encourage others to consider serving in this role.

I love to help volunteer and serve our community; It helps me get to know the parishioners better and I feel more connected to the church and community.  Jesus always calls us to be active in our faith, to be there for our neighbor and help those in need.  I feel volunteering at St. Gens has brought me so much closer to God and to my faith.  It has also helped my kids to be fully active in the church community.  They are excited to go to church and to help whenever needed.

It always felt like something in life was missing.  Volunteering at St. Gen’s has filled in that missing piece and has helped me grow spiritually, personally and professionally.
