Liturgy/Music Ministries at Saint Bonaventure
Last updated March 21, 2006 - 1:09pm. Liturgy/MusicThe Liturgical Ministries are for those wanting to become involved with the community in Mass and Special Liturgical Services. This Ministry brings together Altar servers, Eucharistic Ministers, Lectors, Ushers and Greeters and trains them to serve before, during, and after the Mass.
We are proud that a significant number of liturgical music selections which are sung among English speaking Catholics throughout the world were first heard here at St. Bonaventure. From the very beginning music has been an important and integral part of the liturgy. Loretta Kaley was the first music director, then in 1974 Marty Haugen moved into that position and stayed for nine years.
Funeral Liturgy Planning
Last updated September 17, 2008 - 6:09am. Liturgy/MusicIn a joint effort between the Parish Nurse ministry and the liturgy/music office, our parish schedules Funeral Planning workshops. Our next scheduled workshops this fall are: October 1st at 9:00am (following morning Mass) at Assumption parish in Richfield and October 6th at 7:00pm at St. Bonaventure in the parish hall.
The packet of materials given out at these events has become a very requested item so we have decided to make the packet accessible online. There is an instructions page, a planning form, a music selections page, a scripture section, and a wonderful page called Things To Do, a helpful guide for all who are pre-planning. Please use the attached pages to begin thoughtful processing and conversation with your loved ones.
