Lectors have the important role of proclaiming the Word of God during the celebration of the Eucharist and other liturgical services, such as the Liturgy of the Hours, the sacraments, and special liturgical celebrations. The lector is a vital and integral part of the liturgical life of the Church. Lectors are laypeople who are called to be faithful to the Word of God, proclaim it clearly and effectively, and to witness to its message in their daily lives.
