I converted (from nothing really) to the Catholic Church and this Easter will mark my second year. I have been honored to be chosen to be one of the Lectors for the Easter Vigil Mass at my parish this year. I spent many years trying (very trying) to be a rocknroll star. While I used to get a pretty big rush when I would play in front of a (usally small) crowd, it doesn’t hold a candle to how it feels to read from the Bible. Plus, Easter Vigil is when the RCIA class is confirmed into the Church and they receive Communion for the first time, which makes it even more special.

Welcome home.

A hint for lectors and readers. It’s not a performance. Read as though you were talking....read they way you talk.
