Children and Worship
Acolytes lead our worship by carrying the cross, candles, gospel book or banner, and by serving at the altar. This leadership opportunity allows them to learn the patterns of worship through direct participation. Trinity Church has opportunities for a large number of children and youth grades 4–12 to serve as acolytes. Most serve once a month. Contact the clergy if your child would like to participate in the ministry of the acolytes.
Choristers Children third grade and up are invited to join Choristers, our children’s choir program. Choristers learn music skills through curriculum developed by the Royal School of Church Music. They sing three times a month during the school year and participate in choir summer pilgrimages. Rehearsal is on Tuesday evenings from 4:45 to 7:15 with supper provided by Chorister parents. Contact Trinity’s director of music if your child is interested in singing with Choristers.
Communion ministers Children in grades 3–7 assist with the distribution of Holy Communion at the 10:15 Sunday liturgy. Training opportunities are scheduled throughout the year. Contact the director of children’s ministries if your child would like to participate in this sacred ministry.
