June 10: Sacristy Day – Setting Up for Mass
Sacristy Day is intended to provide training and information on both the spirituality and duties of the sacristan as well as provide an opportunity to meet other sacristans. The duties of a sacristan are varied. This is the second Sacristan Day and will focus on setting up for Mass. You do not need to have attended the first Sacristy Day for this session to be useful.
