The Newcomers Welcoming Committee offers immediate support and information to new parishoners in a effort to assist in easing them into parish life and stewardship. Committee members make welcoming phone calls to newly registered parishoners and also host Newcomer Receptions. During Newcomers Weekend tables are manned after each Mass to register individuals and families. A concerted effort is made to make visitors feel welcomed to and answer questions concerning the parish. The Lazarus Committee provides support, care, and food for the bereaved and their families.
Volunteers prepare and serve the meal following the funeral.
The newsletter committe has recently completed the first full year of publishing the bi-monthly parish newsletter, By The Way . Members are needed as contributing reporters as well as advertising sales and distribution. The Reception Committee assists the staff with everything from the Feast of Christ Our King to garden receptions after First Communion. As Newcomers settle into life at Christ Our King they often have questions for the Newcomers Committee regarding the community and recommendations for local services. The Newcomers Committee thought that a Parish Business Directory would be beneficial to newcomers and long time parishoners as well.
