Ministries

Among other ministries at St. John’s, we have these:

• Acolytes - The acolytes serve to glorify God and assist during the worship services. All young men in grades 7 - 12 are encouraged to serve.
• Ushers - Need a bulletin, help with a seat, or have a question? Ushers are always available during services to help! Be part of the team; ushering is easy, fun and provides an opportunity to meet and greet our parish family.
• Altar Guild - All ladies in the church are invited to serve on the Alter Guild. Responsibilities include caring for alter linens, preparing alter vessels and flower arrangements. Willing hands are all that are required.
