A lector is appointed to read the Word of God with clarity and conviction. Accordingly, he or she reads Sacred Scripture from the Lectionary (except the Gospel) during the Mass and other sacred celebrations. He or she may be called upon to recite the psalms between the readings in the absence of a choir or cantor. He or she presents the intentions for general intercessions. Lectors also make parish announcements as appropriate. Lectors should:

❖  Be of sufficient age and maturity to perform the duties of a lector with appropriate reverence.
