Worship Ministries

All Worship ministries have a direct impact on our Sunday worship time at Resurrection. They assist in ensuring that everything is ready for the Eucharist each Sunday, and serving during the Sunday service itself.

These ministries are open to any member after a brief training session. You will be placed on a rotating roster to ensure that everyone gets a chance to serve.

Acolytes

Acolytes assist the celebrant at the altar and in procession during the worship service.

Lay Eucharistic Ministers

Formerly known as "chalice bearers", Lay Eucharistic Ministers serve at the altar, serving the wine during Holy Communion.

Lay Eucharistic Visitors

The Lay Eucharistic Visitors (LEV) team provides Holy Communion at home for anyone who is unable to attend worship on a regular basis. This is available to folks who may be recuperating from a short-term illness or other situation as well as those who are not able to come to church any more.

If you would like to receive communion in this way, or if you would like to consider joining our LEV team, please call the church office (425-746-0322). We will be glad to provide an orientation and training for this wonderful ministry of outreach and presence to others.

Ushers

Ushers help direct people during services. They provide assistance to all worshippers, especially visitors or those with special needs. The duties include distributing worship bulletins to those entering the church, collecting the offering, providing attendance counts, and guiding worshippers to communion.
