The Liturgy Coordinator and Administrative Assistant at St. Pius X Church works with the Administrator/Pastor to oversee all liturgical ministries and assist with liturgical planning for weekends, holy days, school liturgies, funerals, and weddings. The Liturgical Coordinator and Administrative Assistant is also responsible for assisting the Administrator/Pastor with correspondence and overseeing the volunteer receptionists.
