Service Assistants
Our Retired Rector, Fr. Jeff Kraemer’s Original Sketch for the Altar Frontal++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Saint Dunstan’s is blessed by and relies on the faithful, dedicated and capable men, women, teens and children who assist our clergy at all of the worship services held throughout the year. Please talk to Fr. Rob if you are interested in serving in any of these groups.
Altar Guild
The dedicated members of this guild have the privilege of preparing a place to worship God. They operate quietly behind the scenes, but are an essential component in Saint Dunstan’s worship services. They reverently prepare the chancel (altar area) for the services by setting the table (altar) with the linens, vessels, candles and fresh flowers. More
Acolytes Saint Dunstan’s children, teenagers and adults who assist the clergy during worship services are follwing in a tradition of Christian service established in the third century A.D. More
