In the Episcopal Church, an “Acolyte” is the general term used to describe those assisting in the worship ceremony as torchbearers, lighters of candles, crucifers, thurifers, and banner-bearers. This fall, St. John’s is actively recruiting and training all Youth (5th grade or higher) to serve as Acolytes. We will hold a training on Sunday, August 14, at 11:15 AM, for both new and experienced Acolytes.
Lunch will be provided for participating Youth.
If you would like to participate in the training event, please email an RSVP to Claire Dodd, our membership coordinator.
