Do you know it takes a village to make our Sunday Worship services happen (in addition to clergy and staff, who prepare the sermons, the bulletins, the Scripture readings, and countless other details)? From Altar Guild to Welcomers and TWELVE other ministries in between, it takes a minimum of 16 lay people and, ideally, 49 people each service, 65 with the choir and music team! Wow. Our Anglican liturgy is defined as “the work of the people,” which does include simply participating in the liturgy. But serving in a lay worship ministry enhances one’s experience of worship and builds a stronger worshiping community. Are you missing out? Here is an opportunity to explore how you might contribute: Christ Church Lay Ministries will host a one-time Ministry Fair between the services (9:15–10:15 a.m.) on Sunday, April 23rd. Come meet your lay ministry leaders and coordinators and find out what is involved in each area of service. For more information, contact Karalee Romaneski at 703.501.3968 or karalee2000@yahoo.com.
