But be doers of the word, and not merely hearers who deceive themselves.

James 1:22

Children's Choir
No experience is necessary. New singers ages Pre-K through fifth grade are always welcome. Children's Choir meets every Sunday at 8:45 a.m. in the choir room (second floor of the Parish Hall). Singers enter the church in time to sing the Offertory and then join their parents for the Eucharist.









Acolytes
Girls and boys, third grade and up, are encouraged to take an active part in the worship service at 9 and 11 a.m. each Sunday. Acolytes carry the candles (torch bearer) or the cross (crucifer) in procession and receive the offering. Contact Alison at the church office for signup or for more information.
