ACOLYTES NEEDED! Is your child interested in becoming involved in our Acolyte Ministry? We are in need of Acolytes for our 11.am. service! Some FAQ's about Acolyting: How old are Acolytes? Traditionally students are in 3rd-5th grades. However, we do have some younger acolytes who are responsible for their age and can sit still for 1 hour. We don't attend the 11a.m. service. Can my child still be an Acolyte? Absolutely! If you are on campus during the 11am Sunday School hour, your child is welcome to be an Acolyte! How often will my child serve? Typically once per month, with summer months off. How does my child get trained? They will meet with the Acolyte Coordinator for about 30 minutes for training. Are there certain training dates we must attend? There aren't any set training dates. Give the Acolyte Coordinator a call and set up a time that coordinates with both of your schedules. Why is being an acolyte something my child and I should consider? Acolytes play an important role in our Church. One of the most important roles is bringing in the Light of Christ each Sunday to begin Worship. Being an Acolyte will help teach responsibility, attentiveness, and your child will grow in self-confidence. Questions? Ready to take the next step? Contact the current Acolyte Coordinator, Lisa Wahle at lbwahle@hotmail.com or 678-910-6917.
