Acolyte Schedule

The Acolyte Schedule is set months in advance and may not always be accurate because acolytes are required to find substitutes if they are unable to serve on the designated Sunday. For more information about our Acolyte Ministry, contact Darlene Dawes or Kristi Gentry. Click here to see pictures of some of our acolytes.
