Worship Ministries
Oh come, let us worship and bow down; let us kneel before the Lord, our Maker!
- PSALMS 95:6
St. Michael’s hopes to reach each parishioner in meaningful worship which will grow our church as well as grow our members’ love of Christ. We offer many ways for parishioners to participate in the worship service based on their talents and availability. Please grow in your faith and understanding of Christ’s love and the Episcopal faith by contributing to the worship service.

St. Anne’s Altar Guild
St. Anne’s Altar Guild comprises the warm, wonderful people who faithfully prepare the altar for each service in the church and chapel. Altar Guild members are responsible for the care of candles, linens, silver, gold, brass, glass and wood used in the sacraments of worship services. Many of these items have been given in memory of cherished members. Altar Guild service facilitates the work of the clergy, in celebrating Sunday and weekly Eucharistic services, baptisms, weddings, and funeral and memorial services. Please contact the church office. if you are interested in joining this ministry.Lay Eucharistic Ministers
Lay Eucharistic Visitors at St. Michael’s are trained to carry the sacraments to the homebound or hospitalized members of the congregation who are unable to attend church services on Sunday. They are licensed by our Diocesan Bishop. The LEV’s rotate based upon availability.
If you are interested in serving St. Michael’s in this ministry, please contact the church office.
Intercessors and Lectors
St. Michael’s Lectors are lay readers that participate in the Liturgy of the Word during worship service. Lectors read the Old Testament (First Lesson) and Epistle (Second Lesson) readings. Intercessors lead the Prayers of the People during worship.
If you would like to serve in this capacity, please contact the church office.
Flower Guild
St. Michael’s Flower Guild provides fresh flower arrangements in the church and chapel each week. We offer on-the-job training by the more experienced members and we always welcome new members. Workshops are also available to improve skills and introduce new techniques.
The Flower Guild is supported by your generous gifts to celebrate and memorialize occasions and loved ones. We strive to make each week as special as the last, relying on reserves created by a yearly fund-raiser to cover weeks when there is no sponsorship.
