Altar Guild

Leaders: Carole Jacobs / Diane Utsman

What Does this ministry do? A group of the parish (women and men) whose ministry is to care for the altar, vestments, vessels, and altar linens of the parish. Altar Guild members prepare the sanctuary for services, and clean up afterwards.

When and where does this ministry take place? 1 week per 5 weeks - Saturday morning 9-9:45 am, Sunday morning after service, Wednesday services, and special services help in the Sanctuary and sacristy.

What are the responsibilities of volunteers? Work with a team to prepare the Sanctuary for worship, maintaining and caring for the sacred vessels, altar linens, and vestments, and serving the clergy and the parish. *Altar Guild members are servants of the liturgy and learn the meaning, purpose and use of all of the elements in the worship space!
