  • Altar Guild- The motivation for serving in the altar guild – or in any other work of the church – is gratitude.  The basic duty of Altar guild is to prepare the altar area and sanctuary for communion.  We fill the communion trays with wine/ juice, set out communion bread, change the paraments and banners according to the church holidays and seasons. It is rewarding to serve the congregation in such a meaningful way.  Co-chairmen are Linda Hartlein (403-3192) and Carroll Groeger (375-2395). Sign up online or contact Linda or Carroll.
