COMMITTEES Altar Guild The Altar Guild is under the direction of the Worship and Music Committee, and its purpose is to ensure that our sanctuary is free from distractions and inviting to worship. There are more than 30 faithful workers regularly taking care of the small details necessary to enhance our worship services. Members work in teams, and agree to serve one month each year. These members prepare and assist at communion, as well as clean up, placement of altar flowers, banners, and paraments as well as general housekeeping duties in the chancel area.

Each group serves the congregation during an assigned month or summer outdoor sessions to assure that important basic functions of ministry are provided. These tasks include: greeters, ushers, acolyte, communion assistants, lectors, and fellowship servers. "It's not about doing all the tasks perfectly. It's not about treats we offer for fellowship. It's about fellowship. As a congregation we are a community and we are part of a larger community. We are a family. It's about service. It's about relationships. It's about faith." Facilitator: Carol Aakhus Social Concerns Committee - as needed The Social Concerns Committee is responsible for many of the community service activities that our church participates in. The committee is responsible for getting together the food and seeing to the distribution of baskets for Thanksgiving and helping out Crescent Lake Outreach in distribution of goods to those in need. Distributions may include gas cards, payment of electric bills, food, and clothing. We have been instrumental in giving winter clothes and boots to school children.
We are always looking for new and enthusiastic members. If you are interested in joining this committee please contact the church office and your name will be forwarded to the appropriate person. We really do have a good time helping the community.
