Grace Church carries out the ministry of Jesus Christ through a range of committees, guilds, organizations and community service groups. Explore is a brief discussion of the various ministry groups within Grace Church and parishioner community outreach.
Altar Servers: Altar Servers assist the clergy throughout the service by carrying the processional cross, holding the Gospel book, leading the Prayers of the People, and helping with Communion. It is a small but dedicated corps, and we are always happy to get more parishioners involved.
Altar Guild: The Grace Church Altar Guild prepares the church and altar for each service, mid-week services, weddings, funerals and all services, scheduled and unscheduled throughout the year.
Ushers: Individuals or couples who welcome members and visitors, provide service bulletins and take up the Offertory collection.
Choir/Music: Psalm 150 encourages us: “Let everything that has breath praise the Lord!” Worship is our center, and music plays an essential role. In residence from September through Pentecost, our choir enhances worship with songs and anthems and supports congregational singing. Adults and youth are invited to sing without audition or special qualification, though some choral singing experience is helpful. For more information, please contact the director. Contact Director of Music to participate. Open to all!
Lay Reader: Lay readers are parishioners who read the appointed lessons and Psalms from the revised Common Lectionary during the service. There is a set schedule and the lessons are mailed to the appointed parishioner one week before reading.
Episcopal Church Women: Community worship group, turning to God in gratitude for blessings of family, home, and friendship.
People of Grace Breakfast: Fellowship for all. Meet at 9 East Cafe at 8:00am on 3rd Saturday of each month.
Grace's Green: Group that encourages sustainable living as a church and as individuals. Grace's Green builds past accomplishments and continues to seek opportunities to protect and care for God's creation. All are welcome.
