Rector: The Very Reverend Sara Potter

There are several different ministries that work closely together as a part of our worship services. Members of the congregation may serve in several different ministries, and each person who participates shares their skills and talents as an act of prayer and devotion to God. 

To see the schedule for each of these ministries, please check the Liturgical Calendar for the current month.

Acolytes

Acolytes assist the Presider and other worship leaders throughout our worship services. Acolytes serve as crucifer (cross bearer), thurifer (incense bearer) and at the altar during Holy Communion. Acolytes undertake their responsibilities with dignity, joy and care. As one acolyte notes, "If you are doing your job well you won't be noticed." Both youth and adults serve as acolytes.

Coordinator: Rev. Cindy Woods

Altar Guild

The Altar Guild cares for the objects used in worship, handling them carefully and respectfully, because these objects have been dedicated in prayer for use in worship for the glory of God.  The Altar Guild also cares for the sanctuary of the church. The work of the Altar Guild is to ensure that our sanctuary reflects the holiness and the joy that we all create together in our worship.Joining the Altar Guild means learning many fascinating aspects of Church tradition, including the esoteric names for all the various vessels, vestments, linens and paraments we use in worship. Most importantly, serving on the Altar Guild is a spiritual exercise. Caring for the Altar is a way to act out our relationship with God. It is quiet, prayerful work. Anyone, men or women, young or old, may have a vocation for Altar Guild service.
