Answering the call to become a Verger

Br Carlos writes, “Here’s a photo from Sunday, August 17th, when I and other members of my parish were installed as vergers. Starting from the left, we have Father Gregory Mansfield, me, Dr. Nichole Castater, head verger Kelson Roberts, Mario Vargas, Pam Smith, and our trainer from the cathedral and local guild, Alexander Paulmer. Initially, I wasn’t interested in being a verger, but I happily accepted the call because I’m open to different ways of serving the church and its people. Since I’ve been serving as an Eucharist minister since 2021, this seems like a logical next step in my ministry at St Bernard de Clairvuax.”
