The Altar Guild cares for the altar, vestments, vessels, and linens used in worship.
This ministry prepares the sanctuary for regular Sunday services, seasonal liturgies, weddings, funerals, and other worship occasions. Much of the work happens quietly before and after worship, but it shapes the beauty and reverence of every service.
Holy preparation
Altar Guild work is practical and prayerful. It includes setting the holy table, caring for sacred vessels, arranging linens, and attending to details that help the congregation worship without distraction.
Join the ministry
New members are trained by experienced Altar Guild members. Attention to detail, reliability, and a love for worship are the main gifts needed.
