The Altar Guild at Our Savior’s Lutheran Church is a ministry of quiet devotion and faithful service. Working behind the scenes, members prepare the sanctuary for worship so that each service reflects reverence, beauty, and the presence of God.
What We Do The Altar Guild carefully prepares the worship space for each service by:
Setting the altar for Holy Communion
Preparing bread and wine
Caring for altar linens, vessels, and paraments
Changing seasonal colors of the church year
Cleaning and putting away the communion elements and vessels
Through these acts of service, we help create a sacred and welcoming space for all who gather.
Our Purpose The Altar Guild supports the worship life of the congregation by ensuring that all elements of the service are prepared with care and attention. This ministry is an expression of love for God and service to the church community.
