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.

As usual, this committee is always challenged with interesting projects and concerns. Our annual spring clean-up was one project. We had a good turnout, and we would like to thank everyone who helped. Also, thanks to all property committee members and others who helped with the crushed rock around the building. Our next big project will be to refinish the outside worship area and install new seatbacks on the benches. We can always use more help. Lakeside is fortunate to have such willing workers. If you would like to help, please contact someone on the Property Committee for the dates and time.

Each group serves the congregation during an assigned month 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." Chairpersons: Social Concerns Committee - 2nd Tuesday, 9:00 a.m. The Social Concerns Committee is responsible for many of the community service activities that our church participates in.

This distribution may include gas cards, payment of electric bills, food, and clothing. We have been instrumental in giving winter clothes and boots to school children. Proceeds from our Trash and Treasure sale go to many "helping" organizations in the community.
We are always looking for new and enthusiastic members. We meet on the second Tuesday of the month at 9:00, April through December. If you are interested please contact Karen in the office and she will see that your name is forwarded to the appropriate person. We really do have a good time helping the community.
