Every gift has a place here.
A parish isn't a building; it's people who show up for God and for each other. There's a spot for you here. See where you fit!

For students
You don't need experience, a plan, or a friend already in the group. Pick something that sounds like you and show up once.
Liturgical Ministry
Serve at Mass in a unique way, whether as a lector, altar server, or extraordinary minister of Holy Communion. Training is provided!
Music
Sing or play an instrument? Our music ministry helps the whole parish pray, and students are especially welcome. Talk to us after any Mass.
Prayer Ministry
Commit to pray for our parishioners and Arkansas Tech community - quietly, faithfully, and for people who may never know your name.
Volunteer Opportunities
Help us with service projects in Russellville, campus outreach, food drives, and the hundred small jobs that make events happen. Come once or come every week.
OCIA Sponsors
Walk with a fellow student exploring the Catholic faith and learn your own faith along the way. Sponsors are the quiet heroes of every OCIA journey.
Student Leadership
Help plan the year: events, retreats, small groups, and the culture of the place. Talk to our campus minister about joining the leadership team.

For parishioners & the wider community
Our students are far from home. Parishioners, families, alumni, faculty, and neighbors are the reason this place feels like one.
Provide a Meal
Sign up to cook or sponsor a student dinner. Few things preach louder to a college student than a home-cooked meal on a Wednesday night.
Bring Desserts
Not up for a whole meal? Desserts for dinners, receptions, and parish events are always needed and always finished.
Liturgical Ministry
Lector, altar server, extraordinary minister of Holy Communion, sacristan, usher, or greeter at any of our Masses.
OCIA Sponsors
Accompany an adult entering the Church. Attend sessions with them, answer questions, and stand beside them at the Easter Vigil.
Prayer Ministries
Join the parish prayer chain and pray for the intentions entrusted to us, including the students far from home.
Groundskeeping
Mowing, landscaping, seasonal cleanup, and small repairs around the church and parish center.
