An acolyte lights the candles on the altar at the beginning of the worship service. The lighting of the candles symbolizes bringing the light of Christ into our midst. It is a time-honored tradition and an important, meaningful part of the worship service. We encourage our youth, third grade and up, to consider serving as acolytes. Training and robes are provided. To learn more, please read our guidelines for acolytes and their parents. You can also visit the church office to request a copy. Please contact Kellie Sanford to sign up to serve as an acolyte.
