Hands for Holy Week March 23, 9am-Noon

We invite you and your family to join us to be participants in “Hands for Holy Week” Saturday, March 23rd, 2024, from 9:00 a.m. – 12:00 p.m.

Learn about all the different ways you participate in worship leadership for Holy Week (and BEYOND!) such as acolyte, bellringer, crucifier, thurifer, assisting minister, server/reader, greeter/usher, digital verger, and choir.

You will also be able to learn how to create palm crosses with guidance from members of our Altar Guild!

Volunteers are especially needed and will be paired with the Altar Guild to strip the altar on Maundy Thursday and vest the altar on Easter Saturday. There will be a special activity for children. Please RSVP to Cheryl Gaspard at Cherylgaspard@ctkelc.org.
