Altar Guild members prepare the altar for services whether held in the church or other locations (occasionally we hold outdoor services) including regularly scheduled worship, as well as weddings and funerals. They maintain all the altar metal-ware, linens, and candles.  Ideally two or three people work together as a team.

Flower Guild members prepare flowers and other decorative elements for the services including regularly scheduled worship, as well as weddings and funerals. The Flower Guild also sometimes prepares flowers and decorates the Parish Hall for some special events. Members sometimes work on their own but enjoy teamwork and plan together when schedules allow.

The flowers which beautify our altar and the candle which burns continuously, when the presence of the reserved sacrament is in the sanctuary, may be presented in honor or memory of someone.
