The Altar Guild of Saint Bartholomew's Church is open to all women and men of the Parish who are interested in learning more about God's Work in the preparation of the altar for the Holy Eucharist. Serving on the Altar Guild takes dedication and a certain amount of time, and is a wonderful way to feel closer to God. If you are interested please speak with either Reverend Sellery or Muriel Eaton. Adult Acolytes are licensed by the Bishop of New York, and serve at the discretion of the Clergy. The Lectors, licensed by the Bishop of New York, are communicants who serve as readers of the lessons at all major services on Sundays and specified Feast Days throughout the year.
Membership is open to men and women of the parish who have been confirmed.
The Usher Corps, a group of men and women of the parish, serve at Sunday worship services, at weekday choral services, at choir concerts, and at special events. Ushers greet parishioners and visitors, distribute service leaflets, direct worshipers to the pews, take the collection, and guide communicants to the altar. If you are interested in serving as an Usher, please speak with Horace Ewan or Gary Rogers. The Saint Bartholomew's Soup Kitchen ministry to the homeless welcomes new volunteers throughout the year, especially during the summer months. Choral Eucharist we gather to feed between 20 to 35 guests.
