Recently, several members of this group have received additional training and have been licensed by the Bishop to assist the priest by administering the sacrament of Holy Communion to our homebound or hospitalized members. Lay Readers may do all of the above as well as lead Morning and Evening Prayer services in the absence of a Priest and at other designated times. All participants in this ministry are properly trained in accordance with the directives of the Book of Common Prayer and are licensed by the Bishop to serve in this regard. Qualifications are that a person be at least 16 years old and an active confirmed communicant in the parish. Each gathering includes a meal of steak and potatoes followed by a guest speaker.
All men are welcome.
For information e-mail St. Francis Church . What the choir therefore consists of is a group of fine people who enjoy lifting their voices and praising the Lord. We are always looking for more guitar players and are very open to other instruments as well, played by people who feel called to use their talents to worship God. If you would like to join the merry band, please call Ted Wise at 576-5715. The organist works with the Rector to provide hymns that reinforce the Scripture lessons.
