Acolytes
Acolytes lead the congregation in worship, carry the cross and torches in procession, and help the priests at the altar. Acolytes get to learn why we do what we do and experience worship in a whole new way. Click here to sign up to be an acolyte! For more information, email the Rev. Matt Welsch.
Children’s Chapel
Chapel is a 30-minute liturgy of the word that happens during our 10am worship service for children to experience the love of God through storytelling, music, games, dancing, and crafts. Worship leaders and acolytes lead the children to their worship space after the opening our liturgy and accompany them back to join their families during the Peace.
The children begin chapel by preparing the altar with the altar linen, a cross and candles. As the altar represents God’s presence in our worship and the Holy Table of Communion, the vesting of our chapel altar by the children has become an integral part of our worship together. We have fun together singing songs, playing games, and learning about the love of God through Christ. Join us on Sunday mornings to experience God’s love in a caring and compassionate community! Parents are welcome and encouraged to join their children for chapel. If you have questions please contact the Rev. Matt Welsch
