Ushers/Greeters

The usher team at our church fills an important role. They are involved in greeting visitors, welcoming all, directing attendees to their seats, ensuring the safety of the building during services, guiding traffic, helping visitors, answering questions, providing direction, unlocking doors, locking doors, and generally ensuring that the service can proceed problem-free. The usher team is a servant-hearted group of men and women whose ministry is integral to church life. 

Technology Team

Our Technology Team works with the sound system, computers, AV needs for worship or other events, live streaming of our worship services on Facebook and YouTube and other duties as assigned!!

Worship Assistants

Lectors are a vital part of our worship service.  Lectors read the scriptures from the old and new testaments that enhance the Gospel reading and sermon.  The readers are assigned ahead of time and receive the scriptures the week before the service. 

Acolytes, often our children/youth, light the candles on the altar as a reminder that Christ is the light of the world.  The presence of the light reminds us of Jesus’ coming into our world and into our lives. At the end of the service, the light is carried out into the world to show that Jesus Christ is for all people everywhere.

Communion Assistants help with the distribution of communion elements during service.

Altar Guild is responsible for setting up communion, refilling the oil candles, changing the paraments, clearing up after services, and ensuring communion supplies are on hand.
