Anyone ten years of age or older, usually through high school, who desires to help in worship can offer their services as a server at Eucharist or Morning Prayer. This group of women is trained to assist the rector and other clergy in various ways by preparing the church for worship. This preparation includes caring for all the liturgical ornaments and vessels, arranging flowers, caring for linens and vestments, and setting up for Holy Eucharist, weddings, funerals, and all other services. We work through cooperatives that use third-world crafts people or agencies that give aid to the poor.
Help is needed in setting up the display booths and in coordinating the event.
You can also help by purchasing items or services displayed at the Bazaar. Each year the parish gathers, usually in January, to elect a new vestry and to conduct the parish's business. Men, women, and young adults can donate a few hours or a few days to this major fundraiser. The proceeds are used to help those in need in our greater community and with special parish ministries. This is an informal discussion group that meets several times a year to discuss a work of fiction chosen for its literary merit and its bearing on our religious faith or ethical concerns.
