· RCIA Coordinator.  This is an eight-hour per week position who will coordinate the program and the wonderful team of volunteers who have made it such a welcoming and enriching experience for those seeking full membership in the Catholic faith
· Facilities Coordinator.  This also is an eight hour per week position and will be responsible for coordinating outside contractors and our nearly self-managing custodial team
