The altar guild prepares the church for each service of Holy Eucharist, setting the altar with the elements for communion, as well as for special services. The altar guild also prepares communion kits for clergy and lay visitors who take communion to those who are unable to come to church because of illness or other reasons. Members of the altar guild are grouped in teams so that those who are new to this ministry can learn from others, and so that no one person or team has sole responsibility for these important tasks. To learn more, please contact Anne Burnett or Fern Newsom.
