Sunday morning services require the participation of a
surprising number of people who dedicate their time and effort to ensure that
services are meaningful for all who attend. Opportunities include
singing, reading, alter preparation, set up, take down, sound and light
operations, bread baking, decorating, candle lighting, assisting with communion,
and much more.
