     The members of this group assist the Pastor and Coordinator of Liturgical Ministries with the setup and decoration of the worship space for the various seasons and special celebrations of the liturgical year. Work varies from sewing and assembly of banners and other decorations to crafting of special furnishings.

Wedding Coordinators

     Wedding Coordinators  assist the bride, groom and their families through the rehearsal process, typically the night before the wedding.
