Altar Society

White lilies and fresh linens prepared beside the altar

Members of the Altar Society prepare for liturgies by cleaning/pressing linens, cleaning the sanctuary and altar, setting up and providing fresh flowers as well as decorating the Church for holidays and events.

Their quiet, behind-the-scenes work helps make our church a beautiful place of prayer, so that everything is ready when our community gathers for Sunday Mass, weddings, funerals and other celebrations.

Members also help the church reflect the seasons of the liturgical year, from Advent and Christmas to Lent and Easter. No special experience is needed, just a love for our church and a willingness to help. To learn more, please contact our coordinator.
