Diocesan Master of Ceremonies
The Diocesan Master of Ceremonies is Fr. Jerry Tavares.
A Master of Ceremonies in the Catholic Church was originally "an official of the Papal Court responsible for the proper and smooth conduct of the elegant and elaborate rituals involving the Pope and the sacred liturgy." Today, the primary role of the Master of Ceremonies (MC) is to assist in organizing the Mass and directing all liturgical movement so it flows with the proper decorum. Dioceses designate a Priest as Master of Ceremonies during rites performed by the Bishop.
