The usher ministry is the busiest ministry in our St. Anne's parish. Ushers are responsible for opening and closing the door of the church, welcoming people, handing out the bulletin, assisting parishioners, especially the needy, to their seats, inviting members of the congregation to participate in the offertory, taking up the collection, and facilitating the flow of people during holy communion.
During the pandemic the ushers also served as the frontline workers of our church. They played a very important role to ensure the health safety of each parishioner by cleaning the pews before and after each mass, They ensured that each individual wore their facemask properly, checked body temperatures, scanned health passes, sanitized their hands, and supported observance of social distancing. Some of the ushers were volunteers from the Catholic Center and came to St. Anne's to help. The ushers did extraordinary work and deserve to be thanked.
Therefore, a certificate of appreciation of service has been prepared for them. St. Anne's parish is grateful for the service of the following ushers: Lorna Magtoto, Alice Cuadra, Cristita Asumbrado, Janesa Alfaro, Marlita Marinas, Ethel Balmes, Reden Tabangay, Marilou Padilla, Virginia Tayo, Lisa Foronda, Lyn Flores, Prescilla Sanche, and Sylvie Macahilo.
Special thanks to Mr. and Mrs. Jeffrey Camaya and family and most of all to Bro. Desmond Lau who is helping the ushers, especially during the Saturday anticipated Mass.
