Serving in Liturgy

Grace Eucharistic Ministers (GEMS)

GEMs are licensed lay persons who administer the chalice at all services, lead intercessions and psalms, and may take communion elements to the homebound. Information: Ruth Blaney Matthews | 206.842.6390


Team Flower

Team Flower's gifted volunteers donate and arrange altar flowers for Sunday worship and decorate Grace at Christmas and Easter. Arranging is done on a rotating basis, with an overall time commitment of roughly five Sundays per year along with holidays.

Information: Jan Jeffcoat [email protected] | 206.842.5263.


Home Groups

On its designated Sunday, each Grace Home Group has the opportunity to serve as lay ministers and to extend hospitality. We get to do liturgy—we welcome people to church, read the readings, collect the offering, and carry the bread and wine to the altar. After church, we then host a gathering for the whole community, creating a space for community to grow and flourish.

For more information about the activities of Grace Home Groups, or to find out how to become part of a Home Group, visit our Home Groups page.


Acolytes

Starting in 3rd grade, children are invited to participate in our acolyte program. Acolytes help lead our Sunday 9:30 am worship service by lighting candles, leading the procession, and assisting the priest in preparing the communion table. Acolyte training takes place in fall and spring. Acolytes are scheduled to serve about once a month.

For information, contact Stephen Crippen, [email protected].


Friday Friends bulletin assembly

Drop in on Friday mornings at 10:30 am for coffee and conversation with friends while lending a helping hand folding the Sunday bulletins.

For information, contact our Parish Administrator at 206.842.9997, [email protected].
