CELC > Ministry > Worship Ministry

Worship is the most important thing we do as a community of faith. Everything else we do and are as a church family flows from this central event. Each member of our church family has the opportunity to be a part of our worship ministry to the degree of their interest and ability. This ministry involves more of our members on a regular basis than any other.

Altar Care

Persons are trained and scheduled to assist with the preparation of the chancel and nave for worship.

Assisting Minister

The Assisting Minister is provided training and assists in the leadership of our worship services.

Deliver Chancel Flowers

Each Sunday, a member delivers the day's altar flowers to sick or homebound members of our congregation.

Greeter

Greeters serve a ministry of hospitality, welcoming members and visitors before and after worship.

Lector (Reader)

Lectors are responsible for reading the appointed lessons at worship. All readings are mailed in advance.

Nursery Helper

A supervised nursery, staffed by volunteers, is provided during our Sunday services.

Provide Communion Bread

The bread for Communion is provided (bought or baked) by our members, one loaf for each service.

Usher

Ushers serve a ministry of hospitality, assist with the offering, and help everyone feel at home as we worship together.
