So much occurs behind the scenes supporting the beautiful liturgies celebrated here at St. Lawrence.

Much of the thanks for this fact goes to the tireless efforts of many behind-the-scenes individuals, but particularly the work of the sacristans and their assistants.  This ministry includes helping set up for the weekday and weekend Masses, helping with arrangements for Funeral Masses, and assisting in major liturgical celebration in the seasonal Church calendar–like Christmas and, most notably, Holy Week.
