Serve The
Church
We invite you to consider the many different ways you could use your gifts to serve the Church, in our shared mission to “know Christ”.

Acolyte means an attendant or follower and Samuel (1 Samuel 2:18-21) is one of the first examples of an assistant to a priest. The job of an acolyte is to assist the celebrant (the priest in charge of a worship service) and enhance the worship service to help glorify God. Serving as an acolyte is a commitment of your time and talent to the Lord’s service, which is greatly appreciated.
Here at Holy Trinity we have a long history of acolytes in this wonderful ministry. Children from approximately 4th grade through adulthood serve each weekend. Whether a crucifer, torch bearer, gospel or epistle acolyte, our acolytes serve with great dedication. We have trained and awarded six Master Acolytes to the ministry and two of those Master Acolytes have gone on to become Vergers.
We have continued training for any interested parishioners.

The duties of the Altar Guild are to prepare for every service taking place in the church and chapel, including Holy Eucharists, Morning Prayer services, baptisms, weddings, funerals, and memorials. Included in the Altar Guild are the Linen, Flower, and Wedding Groups. This is a very special ministry that we all offer to Our Lord, as we prepare for His presence among us. We have four teams of men and women who serve one week every four weeks, as well as individuals who work only one specific service.

All of us at Holy Trinity want our newcomers and visitors to feel welcome. Our greeters’ main purpose is to search out new faces, while at the same time welcome all with a smile and a sincere greeting. They stand ready to answer any questions about the church and/or service, provide directions to restrooms, the Parish Hall, etc. and give any other assistance needed.

A Lector is a lay person trained in reading Scripture appointed by the Rector to read Lessons, Psalms or lead the Prayers of the People during a service. Lectors have a critical role in the celebration of the Liturgy as they proclaim the Word of God. There is no license required for this lay ministry.

A Licensed Eucharistic Minister (LEM) is a lay person licensed by the Bishop to administer the consecrated elements of the Eucharist. Here at Holy Trinity, the LEM is the chalice bearer, serving the wine during Communion. Special training is required for this ministry.
