Serve with Us

Young parishioners (ages 8+) assist clergy during worship services by carrying the cross, lighting candles, and preparing the altar. This ministry helps children and youth engage meaningfully in worship while fostering community. Acolytes serve during the school year and earn community service hours.

A quiet yet essential ministry, the Altar Guild prepares the altar for all services—Sunday Eucharists, weddings, funerals, and weekday chapels. Members care for linens, vestments, and sacred vessels, ensuring everything reflects the reverence of our worship. Teams serve monthly, with extra care during Advent and Easter.

From leaf raking to HVAC upkeep, this team maintains our beautiful campus with creativity and thrift. Seasonal clean-up days are a great way to pitch in!

This group oversees the care and management of our burial grounds, including the historic churchyard and natural interment sites.

Hospitality is at the heart of this ministry! Hosts set out refreshments and create a warm space for fellowship after services. A simple but vital way to build community.
