Acolyte Corps Acolytes play an important role in our worship and include both adults and young people. Training is required, and interested adults may contact Patrick Lawless for more information. Interested young people should contact Stephanie Reed. Guild members prepare the altars, sanctuary, vestments, and flowers for all worship services, including daily and Sunday celebrations of the Holy Eucharist, marriages, baptisms, confirmations, and burials. Service is rotated among the members.
Membership is at the invitation of the rector, and training is required.
Charlie Iovino is Altar Guild President for Easter 2001. Midge Prinz will be President for Christmas 2001. Altar Flowers Altar Flowers are given by parishioners as an expression of gratitude to God for special events in their lives such as births, marriages or anniversaries, in general thanksgiving or in memory of persons who have died. After Sunday worship, the flowers are taken to the parish's shut-ins and hospital patients. A calendar for offering of altar flowers is posted in the narthex, and those wishing to give them may sign up for the Sunday on which they want to give flowers or call Anne Caputo.
