"The liturgy is the summit toward which the activity of the Church is directed; at the same time it is the font from which all her power flows. For the aim and object of apostolic works is that all who are made sons of God by faith and baptism should come together to praise God in the midst of His Church, to take part in the sacrifice, and to eat the Lord's supper."  - Sacrosanctum Concilium

​Lay ecclesial ministers are members of the lay faithful, sharing in the common priesthood of all the baptized. As such, they are called to discipleship and “to illuminate and order all temporal things with which they are closely associated that these may always be effected and grow according to Christ.”  (source: usccb.org)
