The 7:30 am Acolyte-Chalice Ministers
At 7:30 am two people help the priest lead worship, and each serves as
assistant,
and also either reads the first scripture passage and the psalm, or
guides the prayers of the people. These people are trained as acolytes,
lectors, and Lay Eucharist Ministers. As Lay Eucharistic Ministers,
they are licensed by the diocese. If you are interested in learning
more, please email Tim Johnson, Team Leader. He can be reached at tjohn2@comcast.net .
Lay Eucharistic Ministers at 9 and 11 am Worship Services We serve God through assisting the
priest in distributing communion. We carry the cup of wine, Blood of
the new Covenant, and by sharing it with everyone present enact the
welcome and belonging that is fundamental at Christ's table. All have a
place there.
We also double as lectors, reading the
first selection from scripture for the day and leading the psalm, or
leading the prayers of the people. We are thus doubly blessed in being
able to serve.
Lay Eucharistic Ministers are
trained in their role and licensed by the diocese for a period of three
years. If you would like to join in this way of sharing ministry,
please email me roseanlaurie@gmail.com or call me at 970-556-3111. We offer trainings throughout the year as the need arises.
