The Altar Guild is the ministry of preparing and maintaining the altar, sacred vessels and vestments for our worship services. Members of the Altar Guild perform a silent or hidden ministry to our Parish so that we may worship and glorify Christ. Members are trained and assigned to a rotating team that is responsible for the services during a given month.

Preparations for weddings, funerals, and baptisms are also the responsibility of the Altar Guild.

The Altar Guild cares for the linens, communion silver, liturgical hangings, candles, and brass vases which are used in the various services. The changing vestments and altar hangings remind us of the progression of seasons in the Christian calendar, and they accent special services throughout the year.

The Altar Guild works closely with the Clergy, complementing the ministry of the Word and Sacraments.
