Art and environment play a crucial role in honoring God within and around Saint Robert of Newminster Catholic Church. These elements are not merely decorative but serve to elevate the spiritual experience of the faithful, creating a sacred space that reflects the divine beauty and presence of God. We are always seeking volunteers who wish to participate. Artistic experience is not necessary, but a willingness and desire to enhance the quality of our worship is always required. Volunteer opportunities exist in the following areas:

The Sanctuary

The environment within a church changes with the liturgical seasons, reflecting the different aspects of the Christian journey. Under the direction of our Pastor and Liturgical Worship Team, volunteers assist in decorating and preparing for the seasonal décor in our church, especially during the Christmas and Easter seasons.

The Grounds

Before even walking into the church, our grounds reflect the beauty and glory of God. Under the direction of our Facilities Manager and volunteer Master Gardener, volunteer gardeners maintain an area of the grounds from April until October.
